Voltaren Gel 3 Cost (Top voted first)
UpdatedMy husband has been prescribe voltaren gel 3% for severe arthritis. The cost is $1100.00. Insurance won't pay and we can't afford the cost. It was prescribed as a topical because he can't take Ibuprofen in any other form. A month ago he had a severe bleed out from an ulcer caused by Ibuprofen. Lost 8 units of blood and almost died. We need help with the cost of the drug. Any suggestions?

I would google medication and search out manufacturer coupons. You may want to contact the company directly and for their assistance.
Try your local pharmacists and see if they could help you obtain coupons from the company.
My husband went to Walmart today and told them he has no insurance. (He doesn't). He got the generic for $10. It's exactly the same.
I am shocked at your costs. Must be in the US. Here in the Czech Republic we can purchase extra strength, 2.32%, for about 10.00 US dollars, over the counter. (For 100 grams). You can also purchase from Canadian pharmacies for about $28.00. Or if you can get to Mexico it also sells for about $10 per tube. Good luck in getting it. It seems to help my wife's osteoarthritis.
