Pharmacy Coupon Rewards
2. Manufacturer Coupons and Vouchers
Manufacturers regularly offer coupons and vouchers for relatively new brand name prescription medications, allowing consumers to try the medication for up to one month at no cost. Try before you buy! Coupons for samples, free trial vouchers, even percentage discounts for new customers are available for many medications.
Insurance information is typically not required to fill a sample or trial offer prescription. A doctor’s written prescription is required, however, to be submitted with the coupon or voucher.
A list of current manufacturer coupons and offers may be found at Reduce Prescription Costs
Once you redeem a trial or other prescription coupon, the manufacturer will generally provide another coupon or rebate voucher by mail. Each time you redeem one, another is provided. With many competing prescription products on the markets, brand loyalty can (and should) be well rewarded.
Even if you are already taking a particular medication, manufacturer offers may be available. Regular “card holder” discounts, manufacturer coupons (also referred to as pharmacy checks), and rebates are increasingly common for brand name prescriptions when a generic alternative is not available but similar, competing, medications are.
Several manufacturers also have “Rewards Programs”, allowing you to submit your receipts for rebates and free gifts. $40 - $200 a year in cash back, as well as free samples and gifts, can add up quickly to reduce or offset prescription costs.
