FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J.,
May 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In just
one year, customers of the Inside Rx® prescription savings program
collectively have saved $100 million
on their medications. Inside Rx, launched by Express Scripts
(NASDAQ:ESRX) in May of 2017, is celebrating its first year of
providing deep discounts on more than 125 brand-name medications,
and a robust list of generic medications, for Americans who are
uninsured or pay out-of-pocket for their prescriptions.

Inside Rx offers patients with chronic conditions such as
diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol more affordable access
to the therapies they need at a price they can afford, with average
savings of 40 percent off on brand-name and 80 percent off retail
on generics medications. It also offers access to many other
therapies including treatments for epilepsy, erectile dysfunction,
migraines, and dermatology drugs not often covered through health
insurance.
"We work with drug manufacturers and retail pharmacies to
constantly increase our portfolio of products and offer eligible
uninsured and underinsured patients deep discounts in the most
critical therapy classes affecting people in our country," said
Leslie Achter, CEO of Inside Rx.
"Since launch, we have also added a Spanish-language version of our
website to help Spanish-speaking patients have access to the online
information." The site is available at InsideRx.com/Es.
Earlier this year, the program launched Inside Rx Pets offering
savings on select medications commonly prescribed for pets
purchased at any of the participating pharmacies.
To benefit from the Inside Rx discounts, eligible users simply
need to download the free discount card from InsideRx.com and
present it at one of the 40,000 participating pharmacies including
national chains such as CVS, the Kroger Family of Pharmacies and
Walgreens. There is no membership fee or other costs to obtain the
card.
For a complete list of the medications and participating
pharmacies, as well as restrictions and eligibility information,
visit InsideRx.com. The Inside Rx card is not insurance.
*Average savings per prescription for Inside Rx users are
based on cash price versus Inside Rx price for featured brand
medications.
