Struggling with high medication costs?

Start Saving on Prescriptions.

RxGenie helps you find affordable alternatives and take control of your medication costs.

Millions of Americans struggle to afford essential medications due to rising drug prices. CDC data shows over 8% skipped prescribed meds in 2021, and out-of-pocket costs reached $63 billion. This compromises health, especially for the most vulnerable.
Are you paying too much for your medications?

Your Well-Being Shouldn’t Depend on Your Wallet

The rising cost of prescription drugs is more than just a financial burden – it can directly impact your well-being. Many people are forced to choose between medications and other essentials or even compromise their treatment due to unaffordable prices.

Understanding prescription pricing is a frustrating maze of insurance policies, fluctuating costs, and hidden fees. It shouldn't be this hard to get a fair deal on the medications you need.

RxGenie is here to change that. We believe affordable medication is a right. Our tools provide clarity, empower you with knowledge, and help you find ways to save without sacrificing the care you deserve.

Individualized Care: No two patients are alike. Your doctor understands your specific medical history, any other medications you take, and unique factors that might influence how a new medication affects you.
 
Medical Expertise: RxGenie analyzes medication data, but your doctor provides expert interpretation in the context of your overall health and diagnosed conditions.
 
Understanding Side Effects: RxGenie provides alternative suggestions, but your doctor can explain the potential side effects of each option and help you make the best, informed choice.

Where does RxGenie get medication pricing information?
