I went to pick up my Relpax refill the other day at the pharmacy drive thru (oh how I love it that they have a drive thru!) and the pharmacy employee said, "Are you aware that this is 137 dollars?" After I regained my composure I told I was NOT aware that it would be that much, and asked her if that was for 6 pills or 12? She said it was for 6!! That makes it $22.83 per pill! Of course, when I am plagued with a migraine I would gladly pay $22.83 to get rid of it, but they don't sell these pills one at a time. I ended up telling her I'd have to come back because I wasn't sure about paying that much.
I'm not really sure now what the debate was because I have to have the Relpax, it just seemed outrageous at the time and I wasn't sure how that was going to fit into our pre-payday finances. Aargh! It's delightful being uninsured...
