BETHLEHEM, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FamilyWize announced today the release of the Medicine Cabinet, the next evolution of its Drug Price Lookup Tool. With the Medicine Cabinet, users will have the ability to create a personal profile and easily find the lowest price for their prescriptions through FamilyWize’s website and mobile app.
FamilyWize developed the Medicine Cabinet using feedback from its users on a personalized way to manage prescription medication costs and the subsequent discounts provided by the FamilyWize program.

“We’ve been tremendously successful over the past 12 years helping families stay healthy and better manage their prescription costs, but we are always looking ahead in order to do even more,” said Joseph Sanginiti, President and CEO of FamilyWize. “We saw a need to create a feature that accurately and conveniently captures patients’ prescription drug price searches. The Medicine Cabinet is the end result, with even more features planned to roll out this year alongside our new website and mobile app.”
