Cost Of Tolvaptan (Page 4)

Updated

I'm trying to find out the cost of one pill of samsca (tolvatan). My family member is on it for hyponaturemia & has cancer as well. I'm not happy with the rehab this person is in as a result of the cost of this med.

Tolvaptan has been prescribed in UK for my father who has hyponatremia. He was told it would be extremely expensive here. What sort of price is it in India and would they send it to us or to our doctor?
Is it as safe as the one in the UK - made by the same company - or to the same standards? Thank you

Tolvaptan 15mg by Zydus Cadilla (brand name Hyponat O) is approx. GBP 4 for 10 Tabs. 30mg is almost double. So it's by a different company but same drug ingredient and potency. It is a reputed company with huge exports to US and Europe and almost all plants are UD-FDA approved. (I have been prescribed it for Hyponatremia as I am on a no salt diet due to polycystic kidneys).

Hi. My father is suffering from Acute Polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD)... I heard that this medicine inhibits the growth of cysts in the kidney.... His creatinine is at 5.4 now.... Can you please tell me where Tolvaptan is available?

Given the cost of Samsca, we had to look for an alternative to treat my mother's hyponatremia. I found this and similar articles:

cjasn.asnjournals.org/content/early/2012/03/08/CJN.06990711.full.pdf

It turns out that urea is a much lower cost - a month's supply is about the same cost as one Samsca - and has been used in Europe for decades to treat hyponatremia and has similar efficacy to Samsca. We found a supplier by the name of "ure-Na" and a nephrologist familiar with the drug (actually its a medical food, so can be purchased over-the-counter). Three months in and so far, so good!
