Help Cost Of Oxycodone Killing Me (Page 5) (Top voted first)

been going to pain managment clinic in tampa florida this entire year the name brand pharmacy;s don't carry the medication so i cant use my insurance. so mom and pop pharmacies carry it but wont take insurance. Heres my problem the first prescription for 240 30mg oxycodone was $260 the next $340 the next $1,500 the next $1,300 the next $1,100 and last month he said it would be $1,300 i told him i could go down the street and get them for $900 then after debating price for 30 minutes he took $890 for 240 oxycodone 30 mg. they also only take CASH. Does this seem legal to anyone?

I live in Ohio and have insurance, I get 240 30mg oxycodone at CVS for $8.00. I have gotten them before insurance would pay for them because I was going to Canada fishing and didn't want the hassle of trying to find CVS or even just getting them filled out if the country. I paid $295.29 cash for 240 "M" box 30's on Oct. 11 2014. I about crapped my pants when the pharmacist told me how much they would be as I've been prescribed the 30 mg oxycodone since my car accident in 2006 with this being only the second time I've paid cash and not used my insurance. The other time was in 2007 when I just ran out before the month was over and since my insurance only covers a 30 day supply I believe I paid around $55.00 for 90 30 mg "M" boxes.

Try what another poster suggested and contact the drug manufacturer and see what type of plans they have to help folks defray the cost of their medications. My mother did it with Nexium and Prozac when they first came out and she ended up paying around $15.00 each or so for a 3 month supply. Maybe checking with CVS or other chain pharmacys out of state for mail order or maybe the manufacturer can help with locating mail order option for you. Good Luck and don't give up, there is a solution out there somewhere.

Or , you could lose the crutch, and get off these meds, and try some different , effective forms of pain management, that is a ridiculous amount of oxycodone you are prescribed. Your "pain management" dealer, should be locked up. This CHOICE you are making to rely on narcotics, is a lifelong , never ending down hill spiral.

I'm surprised to hear that people have trouble at Walgreens. I've been in pain management for almost 2 years now and used to use the Mom & Pop places before the "shortage" happened & they stopped my taking insurance & started raising the prices. Once that happened, I tried a Walgreens & have been using them ever since. It is true that they do not guarentee to have them in stock nor do they order them for you - however, I have about 3 Walgreens in my Tampa area that I go to, and if one doesn't have them - typically one of the other 2 does. I have only had one disaster with them and that was last month and had to wait a day to fill them - & that was because not one single Walgreens in Tampa, Clearwater, St. Pete or Pasco County had them that day. I just went yesterday and found them on my 2nd try. I would help and give you the locations of these Walgreens but unfortunately you will have to find them for yourselves as I do not want to bring too many people to my locations. May sound greedy but I don't ever want to wait a day to fill my stuff again!! Keep trying Walgreens though - they DO have them. Gotta get there really early too.
