The Slash Drug Costs organization has a simple mission of bringing down the costs of prescription and over the counter drugs for consumers. This is accomplished by the communal sharing of information that can be used to reduce overall drug costs.
Unlike other online resources that help people obtain needed medications, we do not discriminate against anyone based on their income and our services are completely free. People should not be required to be poverty stricken just to get the drugs they need. We do not provide medications directly, rather we help people find unconventional affordable ways to be able to obtain their medications for themselves.
The National Library of Medicine states, "Physicians
have always known that an informed patient who takes an active role is a
'better' patient”. The
Slash Drug Costs Incorporated was created upon this premise.
We try to present reasonable methods to reduce costs that patients can
discuss with their doctors.
