Discount and Free: The perfect pair

Benefits corner

If you’ve been employed by Publix for at least 30 days, you can participate in the Associate Prescription Discount Program — and your relatives living in the same household are eligible too!

Pill BottlesThe savings apply to most brand and generic prescriptions and can be as high as 60 percent off the regular retail price, depending on the medication. You and eligible family members also may get up to a 90-day supply of certain generic medications for only $9.

Enrolling is easy. Simply present your 8-digit personnel number to your Publix pharmacist to be added to the program. Associates who participate in the Associate Prescription Discount Program will have their maintenance medications automatically enrolled in our Auto Refill Program.

For a complete list of eligible medications and to learn how to get set up, visit www.publix.org > Health and Well-Being > Prescription and Medication Resources > Associate Prescription Discount Program.

Publix also offers a free oral antibiotic program that includes up to a 14-day supply of these brands with a prescription.

  • Amoxicillin
  • Ampicillin
  • Ciprofloxacin (excluding ciprofloxacin XR)
  • Penicillin VK
  • Sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (SMZ-TMP)

In addition, you can get a free 90-day supply of Lisinopril, Amlodipine, and/or Metformin with a prescription for the medication. All strengths of the generic medication are included (free). Any combination products are excluded. Visit www.publix.com/freemeds for full details.
