Oxycodone Doubled In Price Between Dec 2013 And Jan 2014. Can't Believe Reason

I knew it was too good to be true. With a FL state issued Rx card, Percocet was $47 for one hundred twenty 10/325 pills in December, but it went up to over $100 by January. They say it's because of those who abuse them, but does an increase of $.50 per pill REALLY discourage abuse? I seriously doubt it. If the theory is true, shame on you who take them to feel high, making us who need them pay double.

Hi Suzi, Sorry to hear about the extreme price gouging going on at your pharmacy.

You have every right to feel that way about those who misuse their medication.

What's unfair is that, even at the end of the day, you still can't really do anything about the situation in its entirety. Those who abuse will continue to do so until they find their own inner desire to change their lifestyle.

Hopefully you can find some closure in the meantime with some other less expensive options for pain relief. Have you tried any natural or herbal based remedies?
