Are prescriptions too expensive?

If your prescription drug costs are too high and you don't qualify for Medicare contact the manufacturer of your medicine. Most companies have low cost prescription drugs for individuals who meet their eligibility guidelines. Many states provide assistance as well. You can call your state health department anc check out www.aarp.org/bulletin/prescription and click on "your guide to state run and pharmacy assistance programs".
