Have you tried asking your doctor or medical clinic if they have any payment assistance plan available? Also check with goodRx online when you have to get a prescription to see what their rate is. If it's a lot lower than the pharmacy show them that and they are supposed to supposedly match it. Otherwise I'm not sure what to do. It's horrible how they overcharge for an item people need all the time

It is an optional,123, insurance-based program provided through private companies approved by Medicare to help with brand-name and generic drug costs.
