Wal-mart, Target (I believe)& Meijer's pharamacy have many abx for $4.00. There's a pharamcy price war going on in KY. I'm sure it's other states as well. I would assume that's a 10-21 days supply of options.

Also, the Newbie Links has links to some low cost meds programs.

Don't give up on getting care!!

NJ has a guarantee issue individual health insurance program. Details are here

http://www.nj.gov/dobi/reform.htm

There is a pretty low cost HMO plan, but it has a deductible. Most of the premiums are very high, unfortunately.

You can check out www.pparx.org to find out if you qualify for discount programs from the drug manufacturers for any of the medications you are take.

I also always recommend that people call the health and human services department in their county. Some county governments are really good at helping residents find health care services. Also, tell your LLMD to see if he/she can help.
