Go talk to your pharmacist and have your list of drugs handy. Ask him/her if there are any drugs that are similar to the ones that you are on that your insurance would cover. Pharmaceutical companies can take a drug and add one tiny thing to it and boom, it's a new drug, making the old one not as in demand, and they charge a hefty price. The older drug is now not as new or cutting edge so sometimes the price will drop. Maybe your pharmacist can find something that would work and you can ask your doctor about it.

Also if you have a medication that is not covered on your insurance, call around to several and get prices. You'd be amazed at how much more some pharmacies charge and how few people shop around for drugs.
