    Anybody love a good bulk buy? Me too! Today's tip - buy those maintenance drugs in bulk! Think beyond the 30, even 90-day fill if you can. Note that not every state allows longer that 90 day prescriptions - please keep that in mind when asking your pharmacist if you may buy in bulk! Also, some products can only be purchased at a smaller quantity due to safety or Risk Evaluation & Mitigation Strategies (REMS) programs. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/theedutainer/support
