Suboxone Help? Insurance? (Page 3)

Updated

Hi my name is Carrie and I'm from Hermosa Beach, CA.. I have been taking oral 8mg suboxone for months, as it really helps me and keeps me from popping 40 vicodin or norco's a day. I was on cobra with Blue cross when I began taking it, but it was too expensive. The cobra was 600 a month. Do you know of any independent rx coverage for suboxone? Right now i just paid 400 for 90 of them, and that's a one month supply. I'm better off taking the vicodins. I am disabled, but haven't gotten approved for medical yet. I have no insurance. If you have any suggestions, please help me, best regards.

Look, I know its tough, but don't relapse. If you have somewhere they can go, with an address, I'll take a chance with you on 5 or 10 at a time. $14ea

Ask for generic Subutex aka Buprenorphine.. It is still expensive without insurance, approx $5-6 per 8mg pill at most pharmacies, but better than $11-13 for Suboxone. Suboxone is a joke, it is dangerous and puts too much into your system. I am still expelling orangeness from my body after over a month of being on Bup. I have felt no changes physically or mentally. Same stuff, just cheaper. Tell your doctors what you can or cannot afford.

I think this is just crazy. Y does suboxone cost so much. U would think sence it works so well for people that they would want to make it cheaper cuz it would help stop so much vilence in this world. but instead they would rather have the money IM gana write the f***ing white house or somthing maybe the president will listen if he even gets my letter idk that might sound crazy but im gana try. I dont care what anyone says suboxone has gave me part of my life back now im dependent on the suboxone instead of my drug of choice but i think its better for me than doing the drugs. SUBOXONE JUST MAKES ME FEEL NORMAL.

Hi everyone! I have been desperatly searching for a rx program in illinois that would help pay for my suboxone prescription every month. I only take one 2mg film per day so my script runs me aroung 125 dollars per month. If you go to the suboxone website you can print out a $50 dollar off coupon. It's good for an entire year so once your pharmacy enters the coupon into their system you will get $50 dollars off of your prescription every month. Once the coupon expires you can just go to the website and print a new one out. I've been using the coupon for 2 years now and although it doesn't save a whole lot, anything helps. The coupon is for the suboxone films not the tablets.

Did u have to get your doctor to call or sign up? or did u do this yourself? My spouse has had the same job job since we got married (16 years) & his insurance does not cover the subs & he's been on them a long while & now dropped the insurance as it's useless & costly but we had to borrow $700 just to get one month of generics & are not able to do this again, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Reading all these posts make me happy, I'm not alone. I am so frustrated with the "doctors" or legal drug dealers. I get mine off the street now. Its cheaper. I have been slowly decreasing myself and plan on locking my door , turning off my phone and going through hell for a few days. I'm sick of this drugs control over my life!!

Anthem covered my scripts for buprenorphine between 2005 through 2013. My plan with Anthem changed with the "Affordable Health Care Act". Anthem denied any payment for buprenorphine, effective January 1, 2014. The pharmacist was told they would pay for 16 tablets of Suboxone every 78 days. Being bipolar and on medications to treat it since 1990, I have required buprenorphine to avoid agony and relapse. The FDA approves the drug for the uses prescribed for me and the "Affordable Health Care Act" has "insured" that there be no discrimination between mental health and other health care treatments.

sorry man, but it's the truth. I agree with him. So does everyone who knows the difference, or lack there of, between these doctors and dealers. Money doesn't grow on trees and if there's someone out there that will offer them for less than what you can purchase them for....it's not a bad idea. I want my life back, but life without money isn't really living.

No I did not have to sign up for anything. Just go to suboxone.com and navigate to the discount/coupon. Print it out and take it to the pharmacy. The pharmacy will store it on their system and you'll get 50 dollars off per month. The coupon does have some rules though. It can only be used once every 25 days and it has the prescription has to be written for at least a 15 day supply.

I know exactly what you are going through. I switched to subutex because it is 1/4 the cost. You may want to give it a try. They are just as good if not better.

Really? For those of who were addicted to an opioid & were getting it on the streets turned to Suboxone because the high cost & the high were killing us. Suboxone has given me life back. Employed, healthy relationships with friends & family. Now the company I worked for folded & I lost my insurance. Had unemployment & struggled to pay bills & keep getting Suboxone & pay for Dr. visits. Still looking for work. Like so many unemployed folks, I have a good work history, education, & skills (managed to swing that on the pain pills at least.) now I can't find a decent job. I can't pay my mortgage & bills, let alone continue Suboxone. No kids so I don't qualify for most state assistance. Applied for food stamps now (on unemployment my "income"was too high to qualify for food stamps) Hoped the "Affordable" Care Act would help but I did not find a single plan that would help my situation. On the streets here, Suboxone is more costly than the pharmacy or I haven't come across the right person. Really do not want to do something criminal anyway. Think I am about out of options.
