Why Are Prices at HealthWarehouse So Affordable?

HealthWarehouse is able to offer prescription medications at significantly lower prices than traditional brick-and-mortar pharmacies, largely because of how we operate. By removing many of the costs and intermediaries that drive up prices elsewhere, we pass those savings directly to you.

For instance, we don't process insurance claims, which means we don't work with Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), companies whose involvement often leads to increased drug costs for retail pharmacies. By avoiding these third parties, we streamline the supply chain and reduce expenses.

As an online-only pharmacy, we also avoid the typical overhead costs that come with running physical stores, like rent, utilities, and in-store staff. This efficient model helps us keep prices low while maintaining high standards of service and safety.

More Flexibility with Larger Orders

Another benefit of our approach: we can offer larger quantities of medication than what insurance typically allows. Insurance plans often limit orders to 30- or 90-day supplies and impose restrictions on refills. Because we don't bill insurance, your doctor can write a prescription for up to a one-year supply in many cases, saving you both time and money.

Free Shipping on All Orders

No hidden fees here. Every prescription order ships free within the United States and its territories. Orders go out Monday through Friday, and we work hard to make sure you get your medication quickly and reliably.

Lowering "bad" cholesterol and triglycerides and raising "good" cholesterol decreases the risk of heart disease and helps prevent strokes and heart attacks.
