There are options: This is a great question. There are older, effective medications for bipolar disorder that are much less expensive than the newer ones. Lithium is one example. Alternatively, many pharmaceutical companies have programs to help with the cost of medications that are based on income. Finally, some doctors or clinics have free samples of medications please ask your doctor about these alternatives.

Assistance programs: I agree with dr. Wiener and other colleagues about patient assistance programs. For low or no cost medications, there is the partnership for prescription assistance at: https://www.Pparx.Org/ this is a portal for all kinds of medication programs from various drug companies. Your doctor may need to help fill out forms. Another is http://www.Needymeds.Org/ -- low lost clinics are there too.
