With the economy currently struggling the way it is, many people are having trouble buying the basics, like prescription drugs. Below are some tips to save money on your prescription drugs by purchasing them online and taking advantage of some money saving suggestions.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Online drugstores offer the best prices on prescription drugs. Always choose well known sites, because the more business they get the better of a discount they can usually offer.

  2. Step 2

    Some sites will offer a discount for first time buyers. Some will offer a certain percentage off, or a set amount of money off of different priced orders.

  3. Step 3

    When possible, if it's a prescription drug you use frequently or know you will need in the near future, always opt for the larger prescription size. This can make a drastic difference in the per pill price you pay. Keep in mind, a drug has to be on the market for a set amount of time before the formula will become available for a generic version.

  4. Step 4

    Always choose generic if given the chance. Generic is the same formula, just not made by the same company. It's not an issue of quality, so there's no reason to pay the extra money.
