I have been titrating off and on meds for years, because the science behind HIV treatment is based on theroies of peices of semi-facts. I am now on an Atripla Holiday and the cupon from Gilead I find offensive since our Government is one of the biggest buyer of the drug, both nationally and globally. I am on a holiday from Atripla because my complete confidents in the science is shaken once again just like my insticts about AZT in the 80s and the lack of science or facts behind the treatment.
The Cost of Atripla in the US is the highest cost of any country in the world, In some nations Atripla is sold for as little as 80 cents per dose in the US the average cost is 50 dollars, tell me how this helps this is sad.
I just got My first 30 day supply of Atripla, and Was Shocked I had to pay $500, the druggist said I should be glad because the 30 day supply is $2100 !!!! Ouch. So what do I do next time I need to refill the RX ???
Thx to all for this valuable info. I just called in for my card, unfortunately i just received a refill. I only pay $60 co-pay but am always happy to save more money. I have my meds sent via prescription RX which is a mail order. Use to have humana and paid double the amount. As always keep the good info coming peeps.
Thats great for the folks lucky enough to have insurance. But what about the folks that rely on assistance, i.e. Medicaid? For many of those folks there is a residual of over $200.00/mo that the patient has to cover. Is there a perception out there that folks on medicare have a cache of disposible dollars? Just sayin'.......
Thanks for this information
You must obtain an "Atripla Card" by calling 1-866-784-3431. I called today and the process was very simple, they are sending out a card and gave me the disount information to use if I have a refill before I recieve the card. However, the program expires on 12/31/10 and at that time you have to call back and see if there is another program to reenroll in. Even so, I am saving $50 a month through the end of the year. Hopefully it will renew at the beginning of next. Good Luck!
