Ask your doctor and pharmacist about assistance programs through the pharmaceutical company which manufactures your medicine.

 :) My Mother-in-Law had the same problem. Maybe your Doctor would have some "FREE" samples to get you by. :)

My mom is having that problem, so I am working with her doctors, and looking to see if she qualifies for an assistance programs from the maker of her medications, one doctor said something about a site that offered coupons but forgot the name of the site. Check with your doctor and the pharmacy. Good luck.

I'm scared of hitting this but I just qualified for immediate care assistance. Hopefully in 5 months I won't meet my out of pocket costs.
