Marley Drug started as a local pharmacy in Winston-Salem and now sells nationwide by mail with a different model from the rest of this list. Its Wholesale Price List covers more than 150 FDA-approved generics for conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, hypothyroidism and depression, and every drug on it costs $37 for a 6-month supply or $70 for a full year, which the pharmacy puts at around $6 a month. Shipping is free to all 50 states, and Marley says its average delivery time is 2 days. Outside the list, it sells some branded drugs at published cash prices, such as Zypitamag from $39. Ordering is a search, add to cart and checkout flow, and the pharmacy contacts your prescriber. The trade-offs: it is a cash pharmacy, so payments may not count toward your insurance deductible, staff are reachable only on weekdays and Saturday mornings, and your prescriber has to write for a six or twelve month quantity.
