"Walmart's $4 generic drug program has helped so many patients afford their medication needs, but unfortunately we've found there are still too many patients unable to take advantage of our low prices because they are home-bound or live too far from a Walmart or Sam's Club pharmacy," said Dr. John Agwunobi, president of Walmart's health and wellness division. "With this program, we're able to provide consumers in every rural town or big city across America with more affordable prescription medicines through a convenient, free mail delivery system."

In addition to approximately 300 generic prescriptions for $10 each, Walmart's mail service provides access to more than 3,000 other affordable brand and generic prescriptions with free mail delivery.
