How to Find the Lowest Cost For Your Prescriptions
I partnered with SearchRx for this post, but all thoughts and opinions expressed in this post are my own.
Every parent dreads the winter months when cold season is at its peak. With two children of my own in school we are no strangers to getting sick and it feels as if there is always something going around. I have already posted about ways to keep your kids healthy when sending them back to school after the holiday. But I think that it is also important to further discuss what we do when a cold has set in and it’s time to visit the pediatrician. Unfortunately kids aren’t always goings to be able to kick a cold on their own and before we know it, the pediatrician is handing you slip after slip for prescriptions. Then you begin to worry about how much this may cost cost you. Don’t settle for the prices without doing some research first! Here are some tips on how to find the lowest cost for your prescriptions.
Whenever I bring my children to the pediatrician for a sick visit and the pediatrician confirms they need a prescription, she will place the order for me. This saves me time and it’s almost always ready by the time we get to the pharmacy. However… this also means that I don’t find out the price of the prescription until the order has already been placed and I am at the pharmacy ready to pick it up. This can be quite frustrating and to add to the confusion, the prescription prices on the same drug varies from pharmacy to pharmacy. So what is the solution? How do I ensure that I am actually getting the best price for our family’s prescriptions?
