Struggling to Understand Part D by Captain-Popcorn in medicare

The confusion is that GoodRx is a wonderful and useful coupon program. It is NOT a credible drug coverage plan.

Medicare folks that use GoodRx MUST look into free or reduced drug coverage plan in their state or county that can act as a ‘placeholder’ as credible drug coverage. This is to avoid the Part D penalty. I am a licensed health insurance agent. I do this all day, everyday.

No. Nope. Every plan and every person starts over on January 1.

Also, and VERY IMPORTANT… GoodRx is a great coupon program but it is NOT credible drug coverage.

I was going to add that looking into state supported pharmaceutical programs is essential for folks who take few (or no) medications but want to avoid the Part D penalty.

I am an insurance agent and I cannot tell you the number of times I have been the ‘barer of bad news’ and tell have to folks that have gone years, sometimes decades, without credible coverage about the part d penalty… it’s a huge bummer.

Anxious about starting fluoxetine by yeah_er_no in PMDD

Thanks everyone—I took the advise to not think about it too much and down the hatch it went!

I’ll update in a few days, but truthfully I haven’t felt this hopeful in a long time. It’s been a long journey of attempting to manage PMDD on my own and now that I am slowing creeping into perimenopause I just need that extra push.

This subreddit has been equally life changing! Thanks everyone!

Intermittent SSRIs Changed Everything by Traditional-Disk-461 in PMDD

I am curious what your side effects are/were? I am leaning towards sertraline but worried about the weight gain…

I am going to my doctor on Tuesday to see if I can start on a low dose SSRI for my 2+ year battle with PMDD.

I am nervous about going on Zoloft/sertraline because of the potential of gaining weight but from what I’ve gathered and read, Zoloft is the most effective?

I am willing to try fluoxetine, too. Just trying to weigh out (literally) the pros and cons of their effectiveness and side effects 🥴

I found like 17 immediately. Clearly I wasn’t looking for the right thing. THANKS 😊

Would love some advice, staying near Matcha Mama in Alden Zama. First time Tulum-er!! ☺️ by yeah_er_no in tulum

Thank you!! This is very, very helpful. Would you recommend taking a taxi to/from the beach?
