What is a prescription drug formulary?
A formulary is a list of commonly prescribed medications adopted by a prescription drug plan as its preferred dispensing selections. These drugs are chosen by a team of doctors and pharmacists for their clinical effectiveness, safety, ease of use, and value. The formularies are developed to assist the physicians and patients in selecting medications with the most therapeutic value. The list is distributed to providers, pharmacies, and/or plan participants and offers guidelines for cost-effective prescribing.
