There are drugs listed that are available over the counter for example naproxen sodium.There was only one pharmacy listed in my town that offers it at 250mg x 60 for $16.99.

I can buy a bottle of 400 at a warehouse club for $12.Does this mean doctors are writing scripts for over the counter drugs and pharmacies are filling them?This seems to be the learning experience I gained.

I heard about a bid for prescriptions site on NPR.Priceline is disliked by the travel industry,they get even by taking the coffeepot out of the room.
