In order to afford my insulin, I cut down my dose
Rationing a drug like this isn’t ideal for my health. I am tolerating the lower dose so far, but I worry about the long-term consequences.
I live at the mercy of drug prices.
I’ve had to wait for my paycheck to deposit before getting refills, ration my prescriptions, and stop taking my drugs all together because of the prices.
There shouldn’t be a price tag on my life.
I find it so frustrating that I work a full-time job and am still not able to have what I need to live.
I have no choice but to buy this medication.
My drug prices are so high that if I retire, I won’t be able to afford what I need to stay alive.
No one should have to live at the mercy of drug companies.
The stress of the cost of my treatment has impacted my life in ways that I could never imagine.
This isn’t a game.
We must do more as a society to make sure that my daughter and others like her can always afford the prescription drugs they need.
