Customer Reviews

An empowering book for patients

As a hospitalist, It's frustrating to see patients return to the hospital because they could not afford their medications. This book attacks that problem in a new and exciting way, by empowering patients. It educates and then provides numerous tools for getting affordable medications, like using generics, pill splitting, enrolling in assistance programs, just to name a few. Physicians also should read this book. The easy to read tables make it simple to compare medications within a class and prescribe the least expensive. I'm recommending this to all my patients and colleagues.

Great Resource

This is a wonderful resource for patients who have trouble affording their medications. As a nurse, I see this situation daily. I purchased this book for my father for Father's Day. He had already spent several hours on the internet trying to find this type of information and now it is right at his fingertips! This is a must have for people who need help affording their medications and for those who have family members who need help affording their medications.

One of a Kind

During my recent purchase of "Drugs for Less", I was amazed to find that there were no other books available that offered this type of concise and helpful information. I was surprised at the volume of information which I found in the book. As a healthcare provider, I thought I was relatively "savvy" in my medication purchases, but had not given any thought to the pill splitting idea. Awesome book brought together by a Doctor who quite obviously "CARES" about the overall care of his patients.

Terrific book written by an insider for the consumer!

Finally a book written for the consumer by a doctor who understands the need for affordable prescription drugs! A great gift for any loved one, this easy to read manual is a fantastic resource and a book I recommend without hesitation!

Great way to decrease persciption drug costs

Easy to read and great ideas. Using these ideas and information I have saved individual patients hundreds of dollars a month, and my patients have recieved their medications from US drug sources. This is a must read!
