Dapsone Generics / Jacobus Prices Gone Mad!!!
Updated
Larry Says:
I've suffered from dermatitis herpetaphormis for 35 years. The price of Dapsone has gone through the roof. Jacobus was the only maker for years. Now other companies are making the drug. Correct? My pharmacist says no, but I saw different manufacturers. Is there a buyer's club or something? I must have this but cant afford the new increase in price. Can someone help me?

No, there is no buyers club, but yes, you are correct, the tablets are being manufactured by 3 other companies, Fera Pharmaceuticals, Nsotrum Laboratories, and Virtus Pharmaceuticals, according to NIH listings.
Have you tried a different pharmacy? Another one might be more helpful regarding checking various prices for you.
What is your current pharmacy charging for it?
