Drug Expenses

Introduction Compact

I'm doing some information gathering on out of pocket drug costs. While I'm not looking for particulars (such as drugs or names) I am trying to gauge the expense that people (especially our parents) are paying on a monthly basis for maintenance prescription drugs. The reason I am doing this is because a product that I believe has great potential has landed in my lap. I am absolutely 100% not soliciting business. This is being done entirely to find out how big the market is out there for this product. If you know parents, aunts, uncles or friends are paying more than $100.00 per month in maintenance drugs (drugs taken daily) I would appreciate if you would post. Even if you just post the dollar amount it would help me a great deal with my analysis.

Thank you
