Doxycycline Hyclate 100 Mgs (Top voted first)
UpdatedThis drug doesn't seem to be available at any dose. Have they stopped making it? I take it for rosacea...
Does doxycycline hyclate 100 mg pills get proscribed for kidney infections as well as chlamidia???
Yesterday I renewed my prescription at my Walmart pharmacy. For the past several months it has been $10 for 60 capsules. This time, I was going to be charged $220! Needless to say I did not take the prescription. Shame on who ever manufactures this stuff for ripping off patients - guess I'll just live with rocasea.
My dog has an auto-immune disorder & takes doxycycline. When I went to the vet today, I was told they will not be stocking it until the price stabilizes. I went to my local pharmacy for a price & then started shopping online. I have a followup with the vet tomorrow to review his bloodwork and will give them the information I found to hopefully help other people.
I also take doxycycline for rosacea, my dermatologist thinks it is best for me, it seems to control the flair ups and probs with my eyes, she prescribed something else for now and it reaaly doesn't work as well, drug companies are supposed to help not hinder!!!
I take Doxycycline for Rosacea as well and had stocked up until today. My wife called and told me the refill cost and I almost had a heart attack! The company that manufactures my Doxy is West-Ward Pharmaceutical Group and their phone number for customer service is 800-631-2174. I say we all call them and tell them what we think of their greed!!!
RGR: got it, thanks; please let us know if things improve ie prices fall
I was taking doxy 100mg for rosacea at $15 for 90 tablets at walmart (I'm uninsured), when I called in a refill it was $302! I was stunned, but my doc called in minocycline 100 mg for 90 pills @$30. Too soon to tell if it'll work better or the same, but it's worth the price reduction in my book.
I just filled my dog's prescription at Walgreen's. She has an auto-immune disorder and this is the first time we've tried it. I was shocked at the $226 dollar price for 90 pills ($120 with the Walgreen's discount card). This is what the doctor prescribed and I am nervous for her health, so I paid it. If it works, I'll pay it because she's suffering right now. But it feels like I am at the mercy of the manufacturer.
I was shocked by the price of doxycycline. I have a high deductible plan. I've been using an app called GoodRx. It's similar to a discount card. Using the app the price went from $169 to $25! GoodRx can also be accessed online. You simply print the card instead.
Thanks Dave. My husband also uses and we have been unable to fill his prescription.
I have been told that this is a global problem! I finally found some generic doxycycline at a local pharmacy. All the other pharmacies were out and had no idea when they would get more. One pharmacist told me he thought it was not the lack of raw materials but more of greed... there is much more money to be made in brand name drugs (Oracea) than in generics so the drug companies stop making generic doxycycline! We may never see it again. Have you seen how much Oracea costs? Over $500 a perscription! And the Oracea savings card doesn't work like it used to. At the very least you will pay over $100.
I own a pharmacy. It is true that there is a shortage of doxycycline in the marketplace right now. I have a bunch of it in stock. I was able to get it before it went into short supply. The makers of the drug have increased the price by a multiple of 25 though! It is much more expensive than it is was just a couple of months ago.
i been getting it now in tab form at all sams stores now
Oh it's back in stock ... that's for sure! It now costs over $4.00 per tablet or capsule! The companies that make Doxycycline have raised the price by about 10,000%! UNREAL!
What is the cost of a prescription today? have prices gotten any better?
Prices have not gotten any better folks, and I have no reason to believe they will. I am a pharmacist and know that generally speaking the Doxycycline 100mg capsules or tablets will be costing you folks $4.00 a pill or more. Hopefully most of you (human patients that is!) have insurance to cover the costs. Most of my patients have noticed little difference in price because their insurance cards have a set copay for generics (e.g. $10.00 per rx).
Thanks, RGR. How much were they previously?
I wasn't paying enough attention, I guess--when did the prices go up?
Back in October 2012 and earlier Doxycycline 100mg would have cost about between $4.00 and $12.00 for an rx of 20 pills. Then in November the price went up to about $1.25 to $1.50 a pill. The manufacturers raised the price two different times.
RGR hi, I've heard that now even the prices for doxycycline pills have risen--any sign of relief on your end?
No...there is no signs of relief and to be honest I do not expect any. Doxycyline tablets and capsules went up in price at the same time. As I had said before, you used to be able to get 20 capsules or tablets for say $8 to maybe $15 depending on pharmacy chosen. Doxycycline used to be on the "free antibiotic" lists at many grocery store chains! Not any more! I would say the best price you would find now would be somewhere around $75.00 for 20 capsules or tablets. I will say that many many generic products have gone through the roof recently. I do not think a week goes by that something does not go way up.
