West Milton, OH -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/03/2015 -- Recent studies have shown nearly seven in ten American adults take at least one prescription medication regularly, and more than half of American adults take two or more medications regularly. This is a more than $200 billion industry, and many people cannot afford to pay for their prescription medications on a regular basis. In one year, nearly 50 million Americans skip filling one or more prescriptions due to the cost.

Many Americans are turning to pharmacy discount cards to find a way to save money and be able to obtain the medications needed to survive or to be healthy once again. The website prescription-cards.com is one of the leading prescription card companies and offers a free pharmacy discount card to anyone who signs up.

Rob Wolf, spokesperson for Prescription-Cards.com, stated, "We don't have any costs, memberships, or confusing enrollment forms. It's easy for anyone to sign up, print their card, and get instant savings of up to 80%."

The card covers everyone in the family and is accepted in over 70,000 pharmacies in all 50 states. It's free to use, there are no payments or hidden fees and it's not necessary to have a credit card to sign up. There's no waiting for rebate checks in the mail, all of the savings are instant, and the card never expires. There are no health restrictions either, so a person with a preexisting health concern can still obtain one of the cards.

According to the website, people save 62% on average on their prescriptions. Depending on the prescriptions and the frequency in which the medications are ordered, this can be a significant amount of money and can really make a difference in whether a person can obtain the prescription medications they need.

Wolf stated, "This is a free program and we're excited to help anyone who needs help reducing the amount paid for essential medications. It's always 100% free and easy to start using. Most people will save money on their first prescription after signing up for the card."

To use the card, a person will simply have to print the card and take it to a participating pharmacy. Savings are instant and can be up to 80% of the medication's cost. There are no limitations on how often a person can use the card and they can save money on virtually every prescription that is filled.
