Help Cost Of Oxycodone Killing Me (Page 5)

been going to pain managment clinic in tampa florida this entire year the name brand pharmacy;s don't carry the medication so i cant use my insurance. so mom and pop pharmacies carry it but wont take insurance. Heres my problem the first prescription for 240 30mg oxycodone was $260 the next $340 the next $1,500 the next $1,300 the next $1,100 and last month he said it would be $1,300 i told him i could go down the street and get them for $900 then after debating price for 30 minutes he took $890 for 240 oxycodone 30 mg. they also only take CASH. Does this seem legal to anyone?

Have your doctor prescribe a long acting med and a small amount for breakthru pain. 60-90 long acting and 90 BT is a lot fewer meds, more affordable.

No, not legal. You can't haggle the cost of a script! They're jacking up the cost. If they will accept less, you know it doesn't cost them that much. Especially if they only accept cash. They're trying to stay off the radar. That's crazy! Report them.

I've asked the same question. I dont have insurance and seems like every month the price is different, 128$ for 120 10 mg Percocet one month and maybe 180, then it might drop to 80$. I'm not paying out big bucks like you, thankfully. I just never know what to expect as the pharmacy seems to charge whatever they want and unless the government put a price cap on it well they can get away with it. As far as your pharmacy only taking cash, well a lot of pharmacies don't take credit or certain insurance plans....

There is a discount card from the manufacturer, ask your Dr about it, shouldn't have to pay anymore than 45$

Come to Bronx, NY. The name of the clinic is called Damian Health Center, formerly known as "All Meds". You need to bring proof that something is broken, or in pain (your MRI results), it's what they ask for. They have 3 floors, 1 for psych, the other for pain mgnt, and primary care. This clinic also prescribes Clonazepam and Alprazolam. You'll thank me later. Trust me. This place randomly does U/A's (which is super easy to beat) considering the diagnostic that they use.
