Re: cost of medications--last February there was a post about this--from
our resourecul John Cottingham--telling how to get meds for lower cost.He
said many meds are available through "Indigent Patient Programs" of the
various pharmaceutical companies.  In March, Jerry Finch added info:a list of
companies who do this--Allergan, Burroughs-Wellcome, Glaxo,Inc, Marrion Merrell
 Dow, Miles, Parke-Davis, Sanofi Winthrop, Amgen,Inc., DuPont Merck, Hoffman-La
Roche, Merck, Norwich-Eaton, Smithkilne Beecham, and Upjohn.  Thisa must be
duscussed and arranged with the doctor, and you have to be really indigent, so
may not affect your father, but he should talk to the doctor about the problem.
Hope this is helpful. Does he know about generic Sinemet CR being available now
which should be cheaper?
