Costco Member Prescription Program

Costco Pharmacy is pleased to introduce an exciting new program for Costco members.

The Costco Member Prescription Program is a new prescription savings program for you and your family. It allows Members who have no prescription drug insurance coverage to be the beneficiaries of Costco’s commitment to member service, value, quality and product confidence. Costco is committed to passing on savings to the members and are able to do that by monitoring expenses, taking lower markups, and now negotiating manufacturer/supplier discounts and passing those savings back to Costco members.

The Costco Member Prescription Program offers a discount on all branded and generic prescription medications over Costco’s already low prices. Click here to view some examples of savings that you and your family can begin taking advantage of immediately. An abbreviated list of covered medications is also available for reference.

Program Highlights:

Ask your Costco pharmacist for an application and start saving today.
Costco members (and their dependents) who have no prescription drug coverage available are eligible to join.
There is no fee for Costco members to participate in the program.
Costco location near you, check our Costco Pharmacy Locator or call Costco at 1-800-806-0129 for more information.
Please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions section of this site to obtain quick and easy answers to the things you want to know about the program.

If you have questions regarding the medications on this list, or if your medication is not listed, speak with your doctor or Costco pharmacist to determine if one of the preferred drugs may be right for you.

If you have additional questions about the program please speak with your local Costco Pharmacist OR contact a Pharmacy Service Representative by calling 1-800-806-0129 Monday through Friday between 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Pacific time.

A Costco membership is $50 so you need to make sure you'll save more than that. I went to Costco with my sister and I can't afford it.
