Thumbs up Free Medication--DONT GO WITHOUT
If you are uninsured, there are lots of programs out there you can find on the web so you can get your depression or anxiety medication for free or very low cost.

**PLEASE DONT FEEL LIKE YOU CANT GET HELP THROUGH MEDICATION IF YOU CANT AFFORD IT OR DONT HAVE INSURANCE..****

Just google "Montel Williams Prescription Assistance" and you will find several programs for people who need help paying $$.

Yes, yes yes.

If you take Effexor or Effexor-XR, you can contact Wyeth (the manufacturer) and they'll provide you with 3 months for free. YOu just have to have your doctor sign off on it. We did it while my husband was unemployed for nearly 9 months and it really saved us.

Just another FYI... If you depend on samples from your MD, check with the office to be sure they are continuing this... FDA regulations regarding 'giving samples to patients' are creating too much work for the offices (tracking lot #'s etc)... My medical MD's office is stopping the sample thing all together... But my psychiatrist is continuing to give out samples on a small scale.. check it out, before you run out.........
