Dude, I have no insurance and pay out the a$$. That is sad if they are doing this to people worse off than me. It's not right man, just isn't right. Corporate greed and preying on the poor seems the norm though, do you agree?

I lol @ the walmart commercial where they talk about their wonderful $4 prescription plan...Anyone hear use them for that purpose?
How many times have you been told they have to get a prior authorization for a different medication due to the one your physician gave you not being covered under the 4$ plan?

It is a joke. Cheapest generics and the mg's are low. Therefor you pay $4 but you still end up going through the bottle faster cause you gotta double up on your pills cause the dr wants you to take double the mg, but walmart $4 only pays for the lower mg...

Damn I am tired

I see your point Angel, and live it actually. Walgreen's has a discount program I use. At least I get the right dosage. Shame on them pill pushing machines.

The government foots the bill that is why the high prices...
