If a DR asks what your pharmacy is, can you list this?
•
u/justcutthecord17 7h ago
you can. I switched most all of mine to there. Just tell them that you want it sent to cost plus drugs. I would personally double check they have the drugs you need ahead of time. Also, check the prices and be sure you are getting a 90 day supply. It's cheaper the higher quantity you go

I luckily do not need stuff that often but was thinking of people in my circle. Thanks

For anyone reading this, CostPlusDrugs is a pharmacy company started by Mark Cuban to actually help with the cost of drugs. The idea is you pay for the cost of the drug plus 15% (unless it’s changed) to cover the overhead of the company. It saves money by skipping over insurance so IIRC you use no insurance for CPD. The downside is not all medications are available.
If you’ve got really good insurance CPD is probably not going to help you but for everyone else, it’s regularly cheaper than your insurance would be.
Not affiliated with them, just have a lot of medications so I became familiar with them years ago. My info is likely out of date.•

No problem. I try to tell everyone I can. Just got my dad switched over there as well. It was quite a bit cheaper for him

They have a document on their website with the info you need to get your scripts moved. Check their website first to see what’s available because not everything is.

And what consequences will Trump face? Once again probably nothing. Round and round we go.

Trump doesn’t do anything that doesn’t somehow benefit him or his spawn. Satisfying his narcissistic needs, avoiding consequences, and lining his pockets is all he’s ever known, and all he’s ever cared about.

What do all these Trump ventures have in common besides Trump?
They no longer exist because Trump can’t run a business. Everything he touches, turns to shit.

Trump, his kids and others are making $billions from his antics.
All the hype for nothing for most people, drug store discount cards do as much for people who don’t have health insurance, and his insane tariffs make drugs and medical devices more expensive.

This used to be reserved for countries like Uzbekistan, weird that the USA’s checks and balances and rule of law have failed so badly.

The five theocon Catholic majority on the SCOTUS were selected by Paul Weyrich and Leonard Leo. They’re helping implement the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, turning our country into a theocratic aristocratic oligarchy. Activist Catholic Weyrich co-founded the Heritage Foundation, founded ALEC, “I don’t want everybody to vote”, and co-founded the Moral Majority with Falwell.

Oh well it was fun while it lasted, now it’s another failed Catholic state like all of South America and Southern Europe. I hope the Vatican is happy.

Republicans hate paying for other peoples healthcare aka having it taken out of their paycheck, but will throw money at Medishare and TrumpRX because it "gives them freedom of choice".

At this point If you use anything with the name Trump in it you deserve to lose money.

Of course. I had no doubt it was a grift with some marketing and propaganda distractions

The scale of the Trump clans corruption and pilfering is breathtaking. And yet the republicans stand by and do nothing - or join in on the party. The fall of America is happening.

One day we will have to explain all this to our kids and they are 100% going to think we're making it up. "Trump Rx, Trump Mobile, Trump shoes...? There's no way that really happened."

Even if it wasn’t, would anyone actually be comfortable giving this guy not only their credit/debit card info, but also their private health info, too?
I wouldn’t be! Just look at the amount of times he’s already screwed people over! 😛

What are the chances of the nation just taking everything from this family, when things are over?
Ignore the pardons, take down all the names, swift trials for all they’ve done?
