Millions Skip Taking Medications Due to High Cost<\/h2>\n

Medications do not work if you do not take them. Some people forget to take them or do not take them because of side effects.\u00a0 However in a recent report from the National Centre for Health Statistics suggests another reason \u2013 people can\u2019t afford to pay for their medications.<\/p>\n

Nearly 25 percent of uninsured people didn\u2019t take their prescription drugs as recommended in 2011, compared to about 19 percent of privately-insured people and 15 percent of those on Medicaid.\u00a0 Compared to wealthier Americans, poor and near-poor Americans were\u00a0twice as likely\u00a0to skip out on their medication in order to save money.<\/p>\n

We at Your Canada Drug Store have a goal to provide customers with access to affordable, safe and quality medications.\u00a0 You should not have to juggle your health with your daily living costs.<\/p>\n
