Fort Lauderdale prescription discount card
LowerScript is a free prescription discount card for Fort Lauderdale and Broward County residents.

Compare your medication's price across Broward, then show the card at the counter to pay the lower amount.
A free card to help Fort Lauderdale and Broward County residents save up to 80% on prescriptions — from Las Olas and Victoria Park to Wilton Manors, Pompano and Hollywood. No insurance, no sign-up, no fees.
Broward County blends a large retiree base, a vibrant LGBTQ+ community around Wilton Manors, and sizable Caribbean and Haitian populations — many of whom pay out of pocket for at least some prescriptions. LowerScript lets anyone compare the cash price across nearby pharmacies and pay the lower amount, no coverage required.
Prescription costs in Broward County: the local picture
Fort Lauderdale anchors Broward County — about 1.95 million people, with large Black and Caribbean communities, a substantial Hispanic population and a significant 65+ segment. About 15% of residents under 65 are uninsured, above the ~13.9% state average — a lot of people paying cash at the counter. Broward has also seen wildfire-smoke air-quality concerns in recent months (the June 2026 Everglades "Atlantic Fire"), which public-health guidance flags as an added risk for residents managing asthma, COPD, heart disease or diabetes — another reason to have inhaler and medication prices on hand ahead of time. Broward County also received a failing grade for short-term particle pollution in the American Lung Association's 2026 "State of the Air" report — a documented risk factor alongside asthma, COPD, heart disease and diabetes management, and one more reason to have maintenance-medication prices on hand.
The leading managed conditions are high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol, with heart-disease management significant given the older subpopulation — putting monthly-refill generics like amlodipine, losartan, atorvastatin and metformin at the heart of Broward savings.

Does it work without insurance?
Yes — it's not insurance and works with or without coverage.
Does the card help Broward seniors on Medicare?
Often, yes — in the Part D coverage gap, for drugs a plan doesn't cover, or when a generic's discounted cash price beats the copay. You can't combine the card with Medicare on one purchase, but you can pick whichever price is lower each time.
Does it work in Hollywood and Pembroke Pines too?
Yes — the card works at participating pharmacies across Broward County, including Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs and Pompano Beach. See our dedicated Pembroke Pines page for that area.
