Thumbs up Free Meds for the Income Challenged

I'm going to cross-post this to a couple different forums (wasn't sure the best place). There was a feature in our newspaper today about pharmacutical company programs to provide free meds for people with low incomes. Depending on the company, this level could be between the fedeal poverty level and 2 to 3 times that. There is a list in the newspaper with some of the details, but the note says:

Quote:
A complete listing of programs is available at www.helpingpatients.org
The article talks about how those that need this program the most are the least likely to know about it.

From the newspaper list, a couple sample meds I know a lot of cysters use:

Glucophage: Bristol-Myers Squibb
Synthroid: Abbott Labs

I also stumbled across a book like this in our local library.

There were LOTS of different meds--seems like every common med out there!
