co pay is 60.00 for oxycontin i'm on fixed income ss disability but i get medicare but fall under low income so i get extra help for scripts problem is i still have to pay the 60 which i can't afford is there a program out there to help off set the cost ????? ## I'm sorry, but no. The current programs require either no insurance, or they help people in the coverage gap, but do not assist with co-pays. Have you talked to your doctor about using an alternative medication that might be cheaper, such as MS Contin? It's a time released formulation of Morphine and there are generics available.

is it safe if you are pregnant? ## Hello, Lillie! How are you? No, one of the active ingredients in this medication is Codeine and it is not considered safe, when you are pregnant. If you require a pain reliever, it would be best to see your doctor to discover what's safe for you to take. The FDA classifies it as a narcotic analgesic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and could also cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Delzicol replaced Asacol as a treatment for llceratilve colitis last month. The change meant my co-pay for a month's prescription rose from $33 to $93.

What are the age requirements for this medication? ## Gen Payne contains the active ingredients Ibuprofen, Paracetamol and Codeine, which is a narcotic pain reliever. Since it does contain a narcotic, it would be advisable not to give it to children, unless a doctor has specifically instructed you to do so. And, in the case of elderly people, their body may metabolize the medication differently, so they may require a lower dosage. Side effects may include: nausea, stomach irritation, constipation and dry mouth.

Please I have fibromyalgia and I have applied for Medicaid but can't afford my narcotics, Percocet and exalgo ## You can call the Pharmaceutical compaines that make these drugs. Mallinckrodt makes Exalgo. There are a number of pharmaceutical companies that make Percocet (Oxycodone/Acetaminophen). Ask about Patient Assistance Programs when you call the pharmaceutical companies. You can also look for Discount Prescription Cards online and I have put a link to the Discount Prescription Card here below. RX Savings Card

I am on SSI and I do have BCBS as backup but Metanx is still a very expensive co=pay. My arthritis doctor has me on 2 pills a day and it seems to help and it has helped my RBC count to be normal which had been low for years. ## Hello, Mary! How are you? There is a savings program that may help, you can find information on it at Metanx.com click here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## You should have Medicaid as secondary insurance. Since you have the BCBS, I'm not sure if Medicaid will be of help with the this in your state, but it won't hurt to ask.

I have 42 pieces of metal in my back and am disabled and need help paying for the ms contin my doctor put me on for extended pain relief ## Hello, George! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. However, since MS Contin is currently available as a generic, as approved by the FDA, there aren't any assistance programs available for it, because generics are cheaper by their very nature.

My wife will be starting Votrient in a few weeks. We were contacted by our doctors organization to provide financial information to potentially get help paying for it. We were also contacted by our drug plan to help with co-pay. Very confusing. What is the best way to get financial aid to cover the cost of this drug? ## Do you have any idea of how much it is going to cost you, yet? For some very expensive medications, you may need help from more than one source to cover it. From what I've found reported, it seems to be very expensive, so you could see who is offering the most assistance, or ask about using them both. Votrient Information Votrient may cause side effects, such as nausea, weight loss, hair loss, weakness, and change in hair color.

Where is the website where you can get your med.free if you can't afford to pay for it? ## I don't believe there are any websites that hand out free medication, especially when it comes to prescription meds. There are however certain programs offered by various drug manufacturers, called 'Patient Assistance Programs'. These types of programs may be the closest thing to getting a significant discount on your prescription. Perhaps this is what you're referring to? If so, I happened to come across quite a few websites by running a search on Google for "patient assistance programs". I hope this helps!

What is the correct dosage for gen payne capsules? ## How often can I take Gen Payne, I have extreme tooth ache, and will only be able to see the dentist tomorrow. ## I have severe neck pain and have been taking more and more Gen Payne tablets. How many Gen Payne tablets are safe to take at a time? ## Hello Andrew, According to the manufacturer's website the suggested dosage for Gen Payne capsules is 1-2 capsules every 4 hours not to exceed 12 capsules within 24 hours. As this medication is prescription only I strongly suggest that you contact your doctor to ensure that you are taking the dosage that he/she recommends for you as there may be other factors that will determine if the manufacturer's suggested dosage will work best for you. I hope this information helps.
