Suprep Bowel Prep Kit (Page 2) (Top voted first)

I am looking for a manufacture coupon that will help me pay for my Suprep Bowel Prep Kit. I am 70 years old and can not afford this medication. Can you help me?

REPORT

My doctor gave me a coupon as well with my prescription. I still paid $40 with my insurance! Last time I had this test I was able to get a Fleet kit for about $10 over the counter. There has got to be something less expensive. At these prices it is no wonder people are dying of colon cancer; they cannot afford the test!

I hope you weren't sitting at your PC when the "urge" came!
Seriously to add to this discussion. 6 years ago I had my colonoscopy and I could use "the pill". It was fairly easy. I need another Colonoscopy and learned - (for good or bad) that the pill was found to be HARMFUL and no longer available. So in 4 days I'm taking Suprep. I have AARP Medicare Drug Plan and price was about $75. (no coupons). I'm stocked up on Gatorade and ready to go. (NO pun intended!). Really the bad news was that the doc just changed all early morning procedures til the afternoon. Gonna be a 20 hour process for me!

Buy the suprep so your Doc can get his kickbacks and go skiing in Colorado, or golfing in Fla. Why not? What a rip off! You get the same results with Miralax and Gatorade.

I asked my dr. for free samples and guess what, they had them! No charge, but I had to be pushy.

Ask you doctor for a free sample that Braintree (the manufacture) gives to them!

I also have Humana for Part D. The charge is $86!! I can't afford that. Even with a $10 coupon I can't afford $76. This is ridiculous.

Suprep was worth the money. I would pay a hundred dollars for each bottle to make prep easier for my mother.

Call your Dr. and ask for a free sample kit. Tell the Dr. the cost is too much and they will help you!!! Also drink the mix using a straw. It helps with the taste.
Good luck

I was offered no choice by my doctor. This is the only prep he will use. It cost me 82.50. I have Medicare and a supplement. This prep requires the 2nd dose be completed 2 hours prior to the procedure. It requires drinking a quart and a half of liquid. When I went for my procedure The Anesthetist would not do it because I consumed fluid after midnight. I suffered rectal bleeding from the clean out and severe gas cramps after the clean out and with eating the next day. I am still having digestive and urinary tract problems. It is 2 days after the ingestion of Suprep. I have been ripped off and made sick by this drug. I also was denied the Colonoscopy for my ongoing diverticulitis. I have had many of these procedures and have never experienced anything like this. The Fleets #2 worked just fine for me as did the short version of the Golightly. If patients are going to be denied the procedure because of the dosing what good is it? The Anesthetist said it was against the code to do the procedure if you had fluid after midnight as it was unsafe. Why didn't the drug company or the doctor realize this? I am disgusted and sick from it! This was scheduled at St. Mary's Medical Center in Huntington WV The Anesthesiologist was Dr. Newfeld and the Doctor was Dr. Lahiry. I was scheduled for 7:00 am 08/18/2016. Today is the 20th and I am still not right.

I totally agree. I have had 2 colonoscopy's done and this is the first time they prescribed Suprep. Called them yesterday to get an alternative but they told me to come in and get a free sample. The very fact that my problem has been going on for three years just adds to my suspicion that this Dr. is out for money and thinks he can take advantage of patients. After colonoscopy I'm going somewhere else.

Ask your local pharmacy. If I were you I wouldn't use that product anyway. It doesn't work on many people and the doctor then the doctor accuses the patient of not consuming all of the product. Good luck you.

Just picked up my SUPREP Rx from Rite Aid. They charged $131 for the kit. RIDICULOUS. WALMART quoted me a price of $102. Still RIDICULOUS.

Only coupon I found was for $15. voucher IF YOUR CO-PAY IS $40 OR MORE.

This is the biggest scam yet. For years the prep was some MAG CITRATE you could get for around $5.00 plus some ducolax tabs and maybe Miralax. You KNOW these doctors who call in this "prescribed" kit are getting KICKBACKS from the Mfg. No question in my mind. Drug reps would give my boss pre-typed out RX pads that all he had to do was sign them. Then a couple times a year he'd go on Ski Trips or Florida Trips courtesy the Drug Companies based on # of scripts written. There is NO WAY these two 6 oz bottles should cost this kind of money.........

Re: John (# 52)


Why do doctors insist on writing prescriptions for products that insurance companies don't cover? Is it all about the kick back?

Re: Cookie (# 58)

Your damned straight it’s all about the kickbacks my friend. I worked for a physician and know first hand the drug reps / companies “reward” physicians ( various ways) based on number of scripts for their meds they write.

I had to get this wonderful script three times and Walgreens cost about $92.00 the third time i said to the doctors office and told them even with prescription coverage this 92 dollar thing is not feasible on social security so they gave me it. Now for the medication itself like most the taste is awful and the amount you need to drink are just something one is not use to.

Re: DCM (# 60)

To make matters worse this prep made me sick and did not work well for me. I lost a complete nights sleep and went through with the colonoscopy. For a full two weeks thereafter I had nothing but gas and nausea. When I saw the doctor I told him all the trouble I had with it and about the $90! He said for some it works great and there are some people it does not agree with and I was not completely clean. I need another colonoscopy next year and will only take the Miralax and cheap Gatorade formula that works great. Crazy to give this high cost crap to seniors.

Re: Carol (# 5)

I paid a pretty penny also back in February. Suprep should be removed from the market. Can't fight the Pharmaceuticals they come out on top almost every singe time getting rich on the poisons they pass off as "helpful" to the human race.
The sorriest day in my life was the day I forced that stuff down.
My heart hurts thinking of the others who won't be able to tolerate it either.
Sorry you had to pay big $$$$ for it and I hope you were one who's body could tolerate it. Have a great New Year.

I've done some searching, but I am sorry, I didn't find anything for patient assistance.

Since this is a laxative that is used to to clean out the colon in preparation for certain tests and medical procedures, it is generally a once time purchase and most manufacturers of these products don't offer assistance by way of programs or coupons, because it isn't consider life sustaining and isn't something you are going to be using regularly.

There are, however, other alternatives on the market, most doctors just prefer this one, because it is new and contains no sodium phosphate.

Have you tried asking your doctor about something else you can use, that would be cheaper?
