Pfizer will offer free prescription drugs to people who lost jobs
by The Associated Press
TRENTON—Pfizer Inc. unveilled a program that will let people who have lost their jobs and health insurance keep taking some widely prescribed Pfizer medications—for free, and for up to a year.
Pfizer will provide more than 70 prescription drugs—from Lipitor to Viagra—at no cost to unemployed, uninsured Americans.
People who lost jobs since Jan. 1 and have been on Pfizer drugs for three months or more are eligible.
The announcement comes amid massive job losses caused by the recession and should bring a Pfizer some goodwill, good publicity and brand loyalty.
The program, which starts today, was requested by a committee of employees concerned about newly uninsured patients struggling to buy their medicines
