Companies, groups help with drug costs (http://www.latimes.com/features/health/la-he-yourmoney8-2009jun08,0,1074097.story)
It seems that the drug companies are shifting away from samples toward coupon cards and rebates:
" ... according to a market research survey published in mid-May, drug companies plan to increase their own co-pay programs for insured people this year, so check to see if your drugs' manufacturers offer discounts. GlaxoSmithKline, for example, offers one free prescription and $25 off the next three prescription co-pays for diabetes drug Avandia. That may reduce the patient share for some people to nothing.
