Through Medtipster’s “FREE Everyday Prescription Giveaway,” Michigan residents visiting www.medtipster.com throughout February can register for a free qualifying generic prescription from thousands of qualifying generic medications listed on www.medtipster.com and receive up to a three-month supply free at participating pharmacies, including Kroger, Target, Rite Aid, Kmart and Walmart.

“Switching to generic prescriptions is a great way for consumers to save money on their rising healthcare costs without compromising their quality of care,” said Jason A. Klein, President of Medtipster. “Consumers can save everyday by using Medtipster.com to find where they can locate generic equivalents of their medications by zip code,” added Klein.  “Medtipster is not an e-commerce site – instead we help consumers find where they can purchase their prescription medications and find seasonal and H1N1 flu vaccinations at the lowest price, right in their neighborhoods.”
