Free Program to Save on Prescription Medicines

Millions of Americans take prescription medicines each day to stay healthy and to treat disease.  To help people without prescription coverage access the medicines they need, leading pharmaceutical companies sponsor the Together Rx Access® Program.  This prescription savings program helps eligible individuals and their families gain access to meaningful savings on prescriptions right at their neighborhood pharmacy.  Most cardholders save 25 to 40 percent* on brand-name prescription products.  Medicines in the Program include those used to treat high cholesterol, diabetes, depression, arthritis, asthma, and many other common conditions.  The Card is free to get and free to use.  Individuals may be eligible for the Together Rx Access Card if they do not qualify for Medicare, do not have public or private prescription drug coverage, have a household income of up to $30,000 for a single person or $60,000 for a family of four (income eligibility is adjusted for family size), and are legal residents of the United States or Puerto Rico.
