Drugstore IV: Drugstore in Space

Because I am in the coils of COBRA, and this has not yet started up, my medical coverage is in a very high-rent limbo. In order to get my prescriptions refilled this month I have to pay cash. I take four head pills long-term. Can you guess what the total bill per month is for these four, cash over the counter, no insurance?

Such pricing handily explains the street trade in ADD drugs; legal issues aside, I could totally see it being attractive for someone to sell their Adderall to pay for the other meds. Ugh.

You should try either walmart or its big box store cosco I was sent something in the e-mail a while back that said you can use their pharmacy and still get you medication cheep. You should look into it.

They'll give you a generic of a drug if it's available. It's cheaper usually, and it's the same stuff, just not brand name. Check out the specs, look for the actual pharmaceutical names of the contents of the pill and it will should be the same.
It's the same as if you get waldryl instead of benadryl, still 25 milligrams of diphenhydramine. Exact same stuff, just not paying for the fancy brand name.

Yes, but think of it in a positive way. You are helping pay the drug companies' CEOs bonuses. Maybe if you are lucky they will hire you to clean their pools.

Or you could contact Limburger, he probably has some pills laying around.
