If you are one of those who frequent pharmacies to buy regular maintenance drugs or supplements, then you should know how it can be financially challenging most of the time. The prices of drugs are dramatically increasing from time to time and whether you buy drugs for short term or long term use, the cost may still surprise you and hurt your budget. Those who have no insurance might find it even more unbearable. Interestingly, there are still many ways you can do to save money. For instance, you can simply download Prescription Drug Discounts by Machuca Design and save 10 to 85 percent on most prescription medication instantly.

How this app works

Prescription Drug Discounts app or Rx Discount App is launched by Machuca Design along with other medical-related apps with surprisingly similar functions. These apps include Daily Discount Prescription Drug App (Daily Rx), Rx Extra Savings Prescription Discount Card, and Cheap Prescription Discount Rx App. All of the aforementioned apps allow users to get discounts when buying prescription drugs on selected pharmacies. Unlike typical apps, Prescription Drug Discounts is something you can use with very little interaction. There is no need to navigate through the app. In fact, this app serves as a virtual card and you just have to present it to any accredited pharmacies near you.

Here’s how the app works. After downloading the app on Google PlayStore, you can access it and it will prompt you right away to the main page. The app takes you to a default static screen which displays your auto-generated Group code, member code, BIN and PCN number. This is a permanent code and to get discounts, you just have to present the screen to the pharmacist and you’ll get the discounted prescription drug. There are over 60,000 participating pharmacies nationwide including CVS Pharmacy, Walgreens, Target, Kroger, Albertsons, Publix, Rite Aid, and local pharmacies. You can save 10 to 85% on most prescription medication.  The app doesn’t require any paperwork or registration to avail the discounts.

Other Notable features

If your insurance or your Medicare does not cover your prescriptions, you will surely find this app extremely beneficial. Above all, this app is absolutely free and you can share it with your family and friend. Function-wise, the app doesn’t allow you to do much other than presenting it as a virtual discount card at any accredited pharmacies. However, the Prescription Drug Discounts app is also affiliated with another website. When you tap the “i” button, it takes you to another static page that gives you guide on how to use the app as well as encouraging you to visit their official website at RxPriceQuotes.com.

We went over the site to check how exactly it works. Apparently, the webpage allows you to look up and compare real drug prices near your area. It comes with simple fill-up forms that require you to input details like Drug name, zip code, and radius (area). Once done, it will provide you the result of all the medicines available. Tap the item of your choice, indicate the dosage, and you’ll get the results. It compares all the prices which allow you to choose the cheapest one. Just be mindful that the app and its purpose is not intended to substitute insurance. Even if you have insurance, however, you can present both your insurance and this app to receive the lowest price for your prescription meds.
