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.

  • Urinary symptoms of BPH: May decrease the urge to urinate, improve urine flow with less straining, reduce the feeling that the bladder is not completely emptied, and decrease nighttime urination.

FINASTERIDE - ORAL

(fin-AS-ter-ide)

COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Proscar

USES: Finasteride is used to shrink an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia or BPH) in adult men. It may be used alone or taken in combination with other medications to reduce symptoms of BPH and may also reduce the need for surgery. Finasteride may improve symptoms of BPH and provide benefits such as decreased urge to urinate, better urine flow with less straining, less of a feeling that the bladder is not completely emptied, and decreased nighttime urination. This medication works by decreasing the amount of a natural body hormone (DHT) that causes growth of the prostate. Finasteride is not approved for prevention of prostate cancer. It may slightly increase the risk of developing a very serious form of prostate cancer. Talk to your doctor about the benefits and risks. Women and children should not use this medication.

HOW TO USE: Read the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start taking finasteride and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions regarding the information, consult your doctor or pharmacist. Take this medication by mouth, with or without food, usually once a day, or as directed by your doctor. If the tablet is crushed or broken, it should not be handled by a woman who is pregnant or by a woman who may become pregnant (see also Precautions section). Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day. Do not stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor. It may take 6-12 months to notice a benefit. Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

SIDE EFFECTS: Decreased sexual ability/desire may occur. In some men, this medication can decrease the amount of semen released during sex. This is harmless. Finasteride may also increase hair growth. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: lump in the breast, nipple discharge, breast enlargement/tenderness/pain, pain in the testicles, inability to urinate. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of a serious allergic reaction may include: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Do not start, stop or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with them first.
