Affordable Drugs Resource!

Struggling with the cost of your medications? Besides trying Good Rx, and other coupon related websites at your local pharmacy, you can check for online/mail order prescriptions.

CostPlus Drug Company is a public-benefit corporation launched in January 2022 by Alex Oshmyansky and Mark Cuban to drastically lower prescription drug prices. By bypassing pharmacy benefit managers (intermediaries) and selling generic drugs directly to consumers with a transparent 15% markup, labor fee, and shipping cost, they aim to make medication affordable.

The company originally utilized Truepill Pharmacy for fulfillment but later transitioned to HealthDyne. The transparent pricing, showing the manufacturer price, their markup, and the final price makes it easy to compare prices with local pharmacies. It’s focus is on generic drugs, so new and trial drugs won’t be offered.

They do not take insurance – a boon for those without decent drug coverage. And their prices are often lower than most insurance co-pays. You do need a valid prescription from your doctor.

Check their site on which medications they currently carry first, then contact your doctor. Ask your doctor to write a new prescription that includes ALL of the following information: Your name, your email address, your date of birth, and your medications.
