How Online Pharmacies Help you Save on Diabetes and Hypertension Prescription In the United States, for every additional dollar spent on diabetes or hypertension meds, you can cut up to $7 and $3.98 from your total medical costs. Did you know you can save more and maintain your privacy at the same time when you buy medicines from a licensed online pharmacy? Check how! Recent statistics reveal that approximately 18.2 million American citizens (nearly 6.3% of the total population) under 65 years have diabetes. Also, around 31.6% of the total population (one in four American adults) have hypertension or high blood pressure. (Source: Wiley Online Library) The numbers make both diabetes and high blood pressure the most chronic medical issues requiring immediate medical attention. If they co-occur, they increase the risk factor for cardiovascular problems, like stroke and coronary heart disease. To sum it up, these diseases not only increase your expenditure on prescription drugs but also change your lifestyle and affect your mental stability. In the US, the percentage of people that have a blood pressure greater than 130/80 mmHg and take hypertension meds is around 75%-- the standard treatment threshold for hypertension symptoms in people having diabetes.

Some patient-level surveys have investigated the treatment costs of diabetes and hypertension in different American states. According to them, patients who are highly compliant with their treatment programs spend around $4,570 annually. The hospitalization risk for them is just 13%. Contrary to this, patients who are least compliant spend around $8,867 yearly, because they are at a higher risk of getting hospitalized for advanced care.

If you are struggling with a big fat medical bill and want to save money on prescription drugs, you must shop at licensed online pharmacies. Why shouldn’t you Buy Drugs Directly from the Manufacturers? The price of old drugs drops low because they are out of patent and many companies sell them at competitive rates. However, the clinical trials for developing new drugs require expensive procedures and multiple trials. Therefore, manufacturers and research pharmacies try to recover the cost of failed drug tests by setting high prescription drug prices to get more profits. Why shouldn’t you Buy Drugs Using Insurance? You can save more on diabetes prescription by not using your health plan. Many insurance companies set an average price to cover drugs falling under the same category, which includes generic drugs for diabetes, hypertension, depression, arthritis etc. These drugs are easily available at discount prices online.
When you use medical insurance to buy diabetes drugs from local pharmacies, the pharmacy will get more money because your insurance agents negotiate with manufacturers to reach a common price for all generic or brand specific drugs. This way, you end up spending more than you have too. This is why prescription drug prices vary considerably across different outlets. Why should you Buy Hypertension and Diabetes Medicines from Online Pharmacies? As long as you are shopping at a reliable website that is authorized by a regional or national pharma-regulating body, you can easily save extra money on diabetes prescription. The major benefits of buying prescription drugs online are— They provide a detailed account of every drug, including the properties, interaction, precautions, and side effects. They give you the option to discuss your queries with a US-licensed pharmacist or doctor. They offer you a discount on a 90-day pack. Most of these online pharmacies are licensed by the state board and require you to upload your prescription before you make the purchase. They deliver drugs right at your doorstep. It means that an online pharmacy is safe to use, as long as it is certified. You can verify this information at any authorized website, such as Pharmacy Checker. Do background research on different pharmacies and choose the best one for you.
