Article Body:
There are times when many Americans need a cure for the all-too-common high cost of prescription drugs. The problem is that the cost of prescription drugs continues to rise in the U.S. Some patients must choose between food and medicine; others are forced to import drugs. Patients can save money on their prescription medications with these easy tips:

• Switch from your brand-name, expensive prescription drugs to low-cost alternatives. Both generic and name-brand medications must be manufactured to meet the same strict FDA requirements. Generics are time-tested to be safe and effective. Some new brands have not been marketed long enough to pass the test of time. 

• Don't be misled by free drug samples at the doctor's office. Samples are a form of marketing. Often, you're in for an expensive surprise when the sample runs out and you go to fill the prescription. Get the real price of your drug sample and see if there is a more reasonably priced option at http://turkiyespot.com/USGenericsOnline.com.</a>

"Consumers spend more than they have to on their prescriptions. Know your options, like generic equivalents, and you can save a lot of money," said licensed pharmacist Mel Solochek, co-founder of USGenerics. 

The company provides information on drugs that treat most major medical conditions including diabetes, arthritis and high blood pressure.
