• Cost of generics are competitive with local pharmacies.
• Patients do not have to make an extra trip to the pharmacy where the wait for the prescription can be up to two hours.

• In concurrence with AllianceHealthInfo, The American Journal of Medicine has
reported that the Minnesota Heart Study found that lipid lowering medications had
a discontinuation rate of approximately 50% at six months, and 60% at one year.
• The physician, who dispenses, can monitor whether the patient’s prescription is refilled.
