Many conditions can affect the urinary tract. Urologic conditions include urinary tract infections (UTIs), kidney stones, bladder stones and an overactive bladder. Depending on what you’re diagnosed with, you may be prescribed medication.
How much it costs depends on various factors, from the type and dosage of your urinary medication and whether you’re prescribed generic or name-brand. To save money, some people with urinary conditions use prescription discount cards that can be used at the card provider’s participating pharmacies.
For more information on where to use your discount card to get a urinary medication discount, read on.
Which Pharmacies Accept Discount Cards?
The answer depends on which card you’re using to try and get a urinary medication discount. Each card provider works with pharmacies to help its customers save. Some pharmacy networks are small and include only community pharmacies, others can be used at major pharmacy chains like CVS and Rite Aid and the best cards can be used at both.
Inside Rx is a prescription discount card that falls into the third category. It can be used to help save money on urinary medications at more than 60,000 pharmacies, both independent and retail chains, in its network.

Which Types of Urinary Medication Can You Get a Discount On?
Again, it depends on the discount card you’re using. However, most cards offer savings on most prescription medications not just for urologic disorders but also for other conditions. As long as you have a valid prescription, it’s likely that the participating pharmacy will honor your discount.
For instance, Inside Rx can be used to save money on medications for conditions such as UTIs, bladder cancer and bladder control problems. Some examples of prescription drugs you may get a discount on are:
- Anticholinergic drugs, such as oxybutynin, solifenacin and fesoterodine, typically prescribed to patients with urinary incontinence
- Oral antibiotics like fosfomycin, nitrofurantoin, amoxicillin and ciprofloxacin, for the treatment of uncomplicated UTIs
- Alpha-blockers like tamsulosin that help patients pass small kidney stones or treat the symptoms of an enlarged prostate
- Tecentriq®, Bavencio®, Balversa® and other drugs used in the management of bladder cancer
