- Where can I buy crutches today in Albia, IA?
- A pharmacy is usually the fastest option. 1 is listed on this page. Most retail pharmacies keep basic aluminum underarm crutches in stock for roughly $25 to $45 and do not need a prescription. Call first, because crutches are a low-turnover item and a single store may be out.
- Do I need a prescription to buy crutches in Iowa?

A prescription only matters if you want Medicare or private insurance to pay for them, in which case the supplier also has to be enrolled in Medicare and you need a written order from your clinician. More on how coverage works.
- What is the difference between the store types listed here?
