Please tell others that take these. We expect to add more than 1k more meds over the next 12 months, if not sooner.

Tried. Doesn't carry the one expensive medicine I need. But then, there's no generic for it . . . Journeyman Jun 2022 #6

Seems like it could save people a bunch of money.

But they don't have any meds we need as far as I can tell. One they do have that I use is a Ventolin/ albuterol inhaler but it was only about $8 cheaper than via my insurance at about $44, still way overpriced and the price jumped when the patent must have expired. That drug has been on the market for many, many years and it used to cost about $8-10. Then the price jumped to about $50 copay! I am sick of being exploited by pharma and ins etc.

They could have some drugs others may need which will be cheaper.

I fully intend to use it when needed, though.
