Horry County Rx Card

We are nearing four weeks since the introduction of the Horry County's free prescription drug discount program
Since January 1, when Horry County launched the program to help consumers cope with the high price of prescription drugs, the total price savings from the 780 Horry County users totaled $16,819.80.
The card offers an average savings of 20% off the retail price of commonly prescribed drugs.
There is no cost to county taxpayers to make these money saving cards available to our residents.
A national network of more than 59,000 participating retail pharmacies also honors the card.
Cards are available at all Horry County memorial library locations, the Horry County Veterans Office, the Horry County Public Information Booth in the Horry County Government and Justice Center, and all treasurer's offices.
Cards are also available at all five local health departments throughout Horry County.
County residents can call toll free 1-877-321-2652 or click on the link below for more on the program.
