Hi Mary Lou-

I sent you a private message regarding this matter. The message said:

Another option other than Patient Assistance Programs is to request generic versions of the medications.

I know that the FDA has recently approved a generic version of Zoloft. This version works just as well as Zoloft but is MUCH cheaper. Ask your doctor to prescribe this in the future (or ask your pharmacist to substitute the generic version). There are also generic versions available of Caduet, Wellbutrin and Seroquel available.

Additionally, the Nexium is very similar to the over the counter medication Prilosec, which is much cheaper. Check with your doctor to see if you can substitute Prilosec for the Nexium.

Good luck!!
Emily
