Those of us who take drugs by prescription realize we depend on those drugs to lower our cholesterol, keep our blood pressure under control, and do many other things to keep us healthy or prevent more serious health problems.
Some studies have shown that almost half of Americans take at least one prescription drug. And half of our senior citizens take three or more prescription medications.
We all know that the cost of drugs continues to rise. Plus the number of people who are uninsured or underinsured also keeps going up.
