Depression in Georgia
In Georgia, 18.4% of adults reported having been diagnosed with a depressive disorder (BRFSS 2024, via America's Health Rankings). Antidepressant and anti-anxiety medications are often taken long-term, so keeping the cost of medication affordable once you have a prescription matters.

How LowerScript helps with depression and anxiety medications
Antidepressants are usually taken daily and long-term, so the lowest cash price matters over time. Generic SSRIs like sertraline, escitalopram and fluoxetine are inexpensive, but comparing pharmacies and using a discount can still lower the monthly cost.

Cost is a real barrier to staying on mental-health treatment: in a study of Medicare patients, those with depression were significantly more likely to face persistent cost-related nonadherence — repeatedly skipping or stretching medications to save money.1 Comparing cash prices and using a free discount card is one practical way to keep an ongoing prescription affordable.
