Unfortunately, it is a sad fact of life that our bodies become increasingly reliant on drugs as we enter our older years. And the cost of these, certainly for some, can be exorbitant. But rather than head into Canada, or trawl the internet for spurious offerings, there is a way that senior medicine can be gotten for free.

There is nothing wrong, illegal or indeed scamming about this; these prescription drugs are available direct from the pharmaceutical companies according to your doctor's guidance. There is of course a certain procedure that needs to be followed to take advantage here.

The first step you need take is to advise your doctor that you are unable to meet the costs of your medication. For legislative purposes, you will have to prove you do not have sufficient funds, any insurance, or access to a prescription plan.

The next step will be to contact the manufacturer of the drug(s) you are being prescribed. |Such information could be available direct from your medical center or the internet. If you do not have access to the internet, a friend or family member should be able to help.

It is best to contact the drug manufacturer by phone in the first instance, but you will need to put the request in writing. This can be done via email in many cases, or simply via the traditional postal service.

Once your request has been processed, you will be sent a form to complete. In most instances, this will be through the post; but some companies have online forms or electronic versions to complete. Again, seek assistance if you are unsure regards this.

The form will ask for proof of your inability to pay, proof that you need their medication, and details regards your exact medical complaint. Ensuring you have retained a copy of the form for yourself, complete and return as advised.

Processing the form may take a little time, but it should be a speedy turnaround. If you qualify for free senior medicine, your personal physician will be advised, and will receive the drugs at the medical center. Good luck and all the happiest health.
