First time the doctor prescribed me this it was $29.99 after insurance. This time it was $89.25 for the same thing… wtf? And it still says insurance saved me well over $100. The thing is I’m so embarrassed about all of this I’d rather be in a shit financial position than ask my parents or the doctor or insurance. I’m waiting to start a job that will give me benefits which I’m glad for…. But right now I’m 26 on ED drugs (they actually have helped) and feeling so lousy. Prayers appreciated and thanks in advance for any info you have from firsthand experience with this price hike. Insurance and med prices seem so arbitrary

What is your prescription? How many pills, how many mg?

You should be able to get it cheaper. Try Good RX for starters.

Despite what people think. The price that insurance companies charge for drugs is not always the cheapest price. I take seven different daily meds. All are generic but one. My Metformin (type 2 diabetes) only costs $4 for 60 pills at Walmart. My insurance copay is higher. The other 5 are cheaper mail order from my health insurance because I get 3vmonths worth for their copay.

As mentioned, go to Goodrx. Type in your drugs name. Using the pull down menu's select the pills strenght & the quanity. Hit search. It'll give you a list of local pharmacy's & you HAVE to go to that pharmacy to get that price. They do not price match.

So 30 each 10mg of tadalafil are:
$18.99 @ Costco
$23.66 @ Walmart

You MUST mention Goodrx to the clerk that takes your order.

I have good insurance. But my doctor recommended Goodrx. I actually get a better price through them.The last time doctor did a 3 months. You can download the app.

I take 20 mg tadalafil daily for BP and through GoodRX I get a 90 day supply for $39.00 so that is $.43/ea.

Goodrx is the way to go.
