Dillons discounts generic prescriptions

Hutchinson-based Dillon Stores, a division of The Kroger Co., this week launched a program offering discounts on generic drugs.

The discounted price – $4 – applies to more than 300 generic drugs prescribed for 30-day supplies, and is available at all Dillons pharmacy locations.

For a list of generic drugs that are eligible, visit www.dillons.com/generic or call (877) 479-5478. The program covers generic alternatives for many commonly prescribed drugs used to treat diabetes, asthma, depression, heart disease, thyroid disorders and other health problems.

Separately, Dillon Stores also announced a different discount program for two family-planning drugs – Ortho Cyclen and Ortho Tri Cyclen – and a fertility drug.
