neilb Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Not sure if this is the right subject area, but it's the closest I could figure. My sister asked me to find out if there are "legitimate" discount drug sites that might be helpful to our Mom, who is on (among other things) abilify, which is running her $500 per month (in the middle of the Medicare donut). Any ideas? Thanks!--Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cat127 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Here is a site that accredits online pharmacies. A search for PA brought up 22 pharmacies. http://www.vipps.info/ Here is the FDA's recommendations on buying online http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/ResourcesForYou/ucm080588.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaminkw Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Don't know about abilify but some drug companies offer help with the cost of chemos. In those cases, the doctor has to initiate the request. But you can go online to the company who makes abilify and see if they have such a program. If so, you can download the required forms and give them to her doctor with the request that he/she file them for your Mom.

cat127 Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Oh yeah - that's a BMS drug and I know some folks that work there, so I know they definitely have a big charity arm of their company. http://www.bmspaf.org/program2.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilb Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 Cat--Thanks. I don't know if my mom will qualify, but I passed this on to her.--Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
