I am on a program in TN called Safety Net. I get my meds for $3.00 per prescription no matter how much is prescribed. I was recently prescribed Gabapentin which was originally for Epilepsy and Neurological pain for Shingles. Now it's prescribed to help with anxiety. (my diagnosis). See if Safety Net is a state or Federal program. I'm sure there is something in your state that's similar. What are you normally on by the way?

Im prescribed carbatrol right now and i think my parents pay something like 300 a month for it. Its some outrageous number. I tried to convice a doctor to just give me one of those surguries so that i wouldnt have to be medicatied the rest of my life but i guess its very invasive and risky
