Whenever I encounter excessive highway robbery cost for pharmaceutical products I notify my doctor and send a complaint to the pharmaceutical manufacturer. Most of the time, your physician is unaware of the high cost and frequently has samples from the pharmaceutical reps. Sometimes your physician can recommend an alternative. As far as the pharmaceutical manufacturer, they are geared to provide discount coupons in response to complaints. If however, neither option works, contact your legislative representative or senator, since in this election cycle, sky rocketing pharmaceutical prices is a critical needs issue which Congress must address or risk the consequences.

My GP has me onStaevo.( carbidopa, enfacapone/ levodopa) 100. 25/200/100 mg plus 2 ropinirole hydrochloride9.25 mg every 8 hours it is doing more for me than the levodopa/carbidopa and ropinirole 100/25 alone.

my insurance (medicare) would not cover xadago...druggist said it would cost me 900.00 to 1000.00 per month. so I just started taking selegiline 4 days ago...so far I seem to be handling it.
