Austin, TX (PRWEB) September 27, 2006 -- Chatrick Clark, CEO of SmartChoiceDrugstore, announced today that the company will sell $4 generic prescription medicines to consumers nationwide. That is in addition to the company's already in-place national program to sell cancer drugs at no profit.
Unlike Wal-Mart and other large retailers, whose programs are limited to the Tampa, Fla. market, SmartChoiceDrugstore.com's program offering 291 generic medications for $4 a prescription is already available nationwide.
SmartChoiceDrugstore is also offering 90-day supplies or more of generic drugs as opposed to the 30-day supply offered by Wal-Mart and others, eliminating the need to have to hassle with refills every month. SmartChoiceDrugstore.com mails drugs to consumers for a flat $2 shipping and delivery fee.
"Every day, here in the richest nation in the world, many hard-working Americans must choose between life-saving prescriptions or food and shelter," said Clark. "That is just flat-out wrong and we want to do our part to help people afford their medical treatment."
SmartChoiceDrugstore already offers most drugs on line at a 20-75 percent discount off prices found at the nations largest chain pharmacies.
Certified pharmacy technicians verify every doctor and every prescription sent to SmartChoice. In addition, all SmartChoice customer service representatives are trained as pharmacy technicians. Clark's on-line drugstore makes certain his customers always speak with highly trained personnel with their medication questions. An on-line and a walk-in pharmacy, SmartChoiceDrugstore regularly undergoes rigorous governmental inspections. All SmartChoice drugs come directly from the manufacturers or certified drug wholesalers in the United States. SmartChoice does not buy overstock or drugs close to expiration.
"Many people don't realize that SmartChoice pharmacists adhere to the same government standards as their neighborhood drugstore," Clark said. "The difference is that we are able to keep our overhead low and we pass those savings on to our customers who could use a break from the sky-high costs of prescription drugs."
Clark decided to slash profits from SmartChoice cancer and generic drug sales because he has witnessed friends and family members struggle with the high costs of prescription drugs while battling for their lives. The company is also witnessing current Medicare Part D patients struggle with high drug costs as they reach the infamous "doughnut hole" when Medicare stops payment.
"Nobody is doing enough to help these folks -- not Big Pharma, not the U.S. government, not even Wal-Mart yet. "We saw we were in a position to make a difference -- and that's what we're trying to do."
