THE BEST MEDICATION FOR YOU MIGHT NOT BE AVAILABLE TO YOU.

Ongoing scientific progress means that new treatment options are developed with proven advantages over older medications. New drugs may be more effective, have fewer side effects, or better target vulnerable populations, such as seniors and children. According to our survey, the CARP community places a greater value on these benefits compared to the cost of the medication. Yet often older, generic drugs are covered by drug plans instead of newer, potentially better ones. CARP supports equal access to medications that are proven safe and can improve quality of life.
