All the drugs on SingleCare less than $25

A study from Georgetown University found that a quarter of people in poor health, particularly those with chronic conditions, take less medicine than prescribed—or ration their medications—in order to afford them. Americans spend more on prescriptions than any other country in the world, to the tune of $1,025 a year. There’s no getting around it, prescriptions are expensive in the U.S. 

“At SingleCare, it’s our mission to make medication more affordable,” says Shaili Gandhi, Pharm.D., vice president of formulary operations at SingleCare. “Regardless of your insurance coverage, our coupons can help you access thousands of commonly prescribed drugs at prices far below their retail cash price.”

SingleCare has discounts on thousands of FDA-approved medications—and nearly 90 affordable drugs under $25. Here, we feature 10 popular ones from the $25 prescription list.

1. Loratadine children’s 

A generic to Claritin, loratadine children’s is an antihistamine used to treat allergies in young children. It lacks the sedative properties that come along with some over-the-counter antihistamines (such as Benadryl). So, it may be an appealing option for treating daytime allergies in kids. If your child’s allergies last an entire season, or cause symptoms year-round, using SingleCare can add significant savings to your family’s budget.

2. Clindamycin

If you have a penicillin allergy, you may be familiar with clindamycin, or its brand name: Cleocin. It’s a common antibiotic that’s sometimes used as a safe alternative. It treats bacterial infections from pneumonia to strep throat. As a topical gel, it can even treat acne. When you use a SingleCare coupon, it won’t break the bank.

3. Aqueous vitamin D infants

Vitamin D is an essential element for maintaining overall health and wellness by keeping bones, teeth, and muscles strong and healthy. Aqueous vitamin D infants is a dietary supplement that provides vitamin D in doses that are suitable for young children. The supplements are particularly beneficial for infants, whose diets do not always contain the recommended daily value. With SingleCare, your baby’s nutritional needs are affordable. The cash price at some pharmacies is over $30. With our savings, the price can be just over $10.

4. Drysol

If you’re always feeling hot and sweaty, Drysol is a prescription-strength antiperspirant that can help. Not all antiperspirants are created equal. Some over-the-counter options don’t cut it. Drysol and other prescription-strength deodorants contain more aluminum compound than your typical store brand. Drysol is particularly potent, one of the stronger antiperspirants on the market. And when you apply it daily, savings are important. Without a SingleCare card, the price tag could be as high as $35. With SingleCare, you get extra-strength for lower prices, right around $10 a stick. 

5. Chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride 

Chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride is the generic of Librium, a benzodiazepine. Like other benzodiazepines, Chlordiazepoxide is prescribed for anxiety. Unlike other benzodiazepine medications, such as Xanax, this generic drug is also frequently prescribed to treat alcohol withdrawal and body tremors. When you’re already experiencing the extra stress of living with a mental health condition, high prices are one less thing to worry about. 

This medication is a controlled substance, which means it may be addictive. Talk to your doctor about the potential risks, and make sure you take it exactly as prescribed.

6. Methyldopa

High blood pressure affects over 100 million people—that’s almost half of all adults in the U.S. When left untreated, it can lead to a heart attack or stroke. Methyldopa, brand name Aldomet, is a generic medication used to treat hypertension. This daily pill costs less with SingleCare, which makes regulating this common condition more affordable.

7. Ferocon

Ferocon is a prescription-only supplement that contains iron, vitamin C, vitamin B12, and folic acid. It’s most commonly used to treat people with an iron deficiency, otherwise known as anemia, pregnant women, or those with nutritional deficits. No other supplements currently on the market offer the same combination of vitamins and minerals without a prescription. Purchasing multiple over-the-counter vitamins to fill the same dietary gaps could easily cost significantly more than a single prescription. With the SingleCare card, the retail price of Ferocon remains a highly cost-effective option. 

8. Metamucil 

When your digestion is out of whack, it’s uncomfortable. You’re bloated, gassy, and generally feeling blah. The last thing you want to do is spend a lot of money on kombucha or so-called wonder-cures. Metamucil has been around since 1934. In other words, it’s a fiber supplement that’s well-tested—and when you use SingleCare to save, it costs up to $10 less than the regular cash price, so you can be more comfortable.

9. Tetracaine hydrochloride

You may have encountered tetracaine hydrochloride at the optometrist’s office. It’s the generic version of Altacaine, a medicated eye drop that numbs the eye and provides pain relief before or after eye surgery or during certain eye exams. The cash price can be over $100. SingleCare users consistently pay significantly less at the pharmacy counter—sometimes as little as $10.50. You don’t need your eyes checked. The prices really are that low! 

10. Glucosamine/chondroitin

Cartilage helps to cushion the area where your bones meet in a joint. Glucosamine/chondroitin are two important components of that connection. They are commonly taken together as a supplement to help your body build up worn-down cartilage and generate new connective tissues. It can help manage pain associated with various forms of osteoarthritis—without being painful for your finances.
