Chicago, IL - Is you're your medication
too expensive for your budget? Are you choosing between medicine and your
meals? If so, information in a new booklet might help.
The Prescription Assistance Coalition of
Chicago, IL has just published a booklet, "Prescription Drug Giveaway Programs."
The booklet gives information on how and where to get free & low cost
prescription drugs.
"There are over 70 programs from major
drug manufacturers that provide free or low cost medication. These programs
are rarely, if ever publicized," says Chris Pongsak, a researcher at Prescription
Assistance Coalition. "We've published an A to Z listing of all the drugs
that are available to certain qualified groups for free or at very low
cost directly from the manufacturer. There are nearly 46 million Americans
that are lacking health care insurance, many of whom could benefit from
the information in this booklet."
