Did you know that the cost of managing diabetes today is more than double what it was 20 years ago? A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that, on average, people with diabetes spend almost $3,000 more each year than they did in 1987. A big part of this cost is diabetes medicines. Not only are people with diabetes taking more medicines now, the price of new medicines is higher than it has ever been. Emergency room visits and hospital stays can also be a big financial burden for people with diabetes.

However, the report, which was published in the journal?Diabetes Care, stressed that diabetes is being managed much better today than it was 20 years ago. While it may seem like you need to take too many medicines every day, they are helping you live better and avoid serious diabetes complications. Always talk to your healthcare provider before stopping a prescription medicine. In the meantime, read on to learn how you can bring down your yearly costs with great Costco savings.
