Wow $4 generic prescription meds for pets

I just found this really helpful article By Clark Howard.

Target and Kroger websites are posted below: Hundreds of prescription Pet meds availble for $4!

Can't afford to keep Rover or Fluffy on their expensive medication from the vet?

Many years ago, people were taking medications designed for pets as way to save money because of the high cost of prescription drugs for humans. Now that situation has turned completely on its head. Human drugs have become affordable thanks to the wide availability of $4 generics at many retailers.

But what about in the pet market??

When you go to the vet and they write a prescription, they typically also fill it for you at a high markup That's created an opportunity for Kroger to offer $4 generic meds for cats and dogs at all of its pharmacies. Meanwhile, Target is also doing pet-only $4 generic meds in nearly 700 pharmacies around the country.

This is great news. If you have a pet, you know that taking your dog or cat to the vet is big money. Now you can see if your vet will price match Target and Kroger. If not, you know where to get your prescription filled!
