Extremely Expensive Prescriptions

Because of the excessively expensive prescriptions and medicines, numerous constantly ill patients take less of their medication than what has been prescribed. This is frequent with patients who have low incomes, multiple chronic health problems, or no prescription drug coverage. People may be more sensitive to the cost when taking medications that they feel have little impact on their wellbeing, while patients who believe that their treatment is vital might maintain high levels of consistency despite the high costs. But the consequence of medication under-use results in increased hospital visits and a decreased overall health status (J. D. Piette, M. Heisler, and T. H. Wagner). Poverty can also take a massive toll on psychological health.
