If you find that your patient is having difficulty purchasing the prescribed medications,
consider changing pharmacies or drug regimens. The cost of a drug can vary widely
between pharmacies, even within the same city. Many corporations have created generic
$4 lists or special prescription programs that allow patients to fill their medications for a
reasonable cost. In addition, all health plans through the ACA are required to include
prescription drug coverage, although these vary greatly. As a prescriber, you need to be
familiar with the local resources for medication assistance and low-cost medications.)
-guidelines
(When in doubt, follow current guidelines for the treatment of a particular disease or
symptom. Almost all medical and nursing societies have published guidelines, including
the American Heart Association, the American College of Cardiology, the Infectious
Diseases Society of America, and the American Diabetes Association. It is the provider's
responsibility to keep abreast of new recommendations or changes in guidelines and to
incorporate these into their prescribing practices. Although closely following the guidelines
is desirable, we must always take into account that our patients may not fit well into these
guidelines and that individualized care is always best.)
