Common Questions and Answers about Generic adderall cost no insurance

adderall

I am 23 years old and have been perscribed some form of medication for adhd since I was 16. I am now perscribed 20mg of adderall twice a day, though i rarely take more than 15-20 mg a day unless I have an exam etc. Although I do not take that much, I started to feel this year the definate need to take some EVERY day. Without it I sometimes can't get out of bed on the weekend. I limit my dose so to keep my 'addiction' at a minimum, but my question is is this really bad for me?

) I think there is a generic xr now though,, Wallmart says they have it but wont give me a price quote agggh,, I am aiming for the regular now though,, easier to sleep with,, do you know how much the generic adderall 20's are running now?? I usually get 60. I have insurance but they wont cover it because Im 38 lol I guess only kids get meds now lol so i really want to know how much they cost now,, I am in Orange County Ca,, I heard meds here run higher.

I understand it is less expensive, insurance is more likely to cover the cost, and it works in some sort of new, improved way. I would ask the doctors about this ....

I am sure my insurance will be all over that generic provigil..they hate covering for it now. But we do need a generic, as long as it works as well. I used to pay half of the cost, $250.00, until my plan changed and now I only pay $80.00. Its their plan but some things don't go their way.

I think my next step is to call my insurance company, ultimately they are the ones paying for the bulk of the cost -hopefully they will be able to guide me.

If you have any insurance, you aren't eligible for their help, even if your insurance won't pay for their medication. They will assist you in an appeal, but the guy I talked to admitted that it wasn't worth my time and effort, because without a proper diagnosis, it won't do any good. I called in for one more refill today, and will ask my PCP next week about Ritalin or Adderall; my ms neuro suggested Ritalin if I couldn't afford Provigil.

If not 100%, at least a copay. Plus, a lot of the meds used can be bought as generic. I take Lamictal and the generic lamotrogine is actually $4.00 when I get it with my insurance. If you don't have health care insurance, most states/counties have a hospital that offers ER services that can't refuse treatment. You can't really put a price on the way you will feel if you are truly bipolar and get the help you need. It's like turning on a light in a dark room.

00 a month. Turns out her dad dropped her off his insurance. Until I get that situation resolved. I am wondering if there is anything less costly I can get for her that we would get the same results with or if anyone knows of any programs to help us, perhaps through the manufacturer, to get us by. She really does need this, without it she's mean as a rattlesnake and does very poorly in school. She was really hysterical when she found out we couldn't get them.

I've been quoted 33% copay (tier 4) by my drug insurance company which is over $300 for me The online sources I've contacted no longer cover provigil since the generic came out and the generic is about the same price... Looking for financial assistance sources if anyone knows of any thanks!

I cannot afford ongoing use of Provigil unless my insurance agrees to cover some of the cost. Sincerely, Kathy, Who Wants to Get the Most Out of Maui. ******************************************************** In general, I think it's more important to be clear about what you are asking for and why than to include details about the old records and upcoming trips. If he needs the records or details about your lifestyle, I'm sure he'll ask.

Hi Linzr and cyberersal and medgreeddisgust - thanks for adding to this conversation based on your own experiences. Since Provigil went generic, I have been taking modafinil - there are days I try to not take the pill and I find by about 3 pm or so, I really just want to put my head down on my desk and sleep. This, of course, is not an option, so I go back to taking the modafinil and it does make a difference.

smart move I am on adderall n afraid to get off I'd rather suffer with adhd , once your son gets older let him choose if he wants to stay on pills but really enforce the idea of no adderal , desoxy , dexidrine or any ritalin/methyl w/e and obviously all their generic names like amphetamine.

Provigil is more expensive than Nuvigil and many insurance companies won't cover Provigil. The drug company lowered the cost of Nuvigil to get people to switch. My week long testing of Nuvigil has been fantastic. It has greatly improved my mental cognition. I thought I was "fine" on Provigil but on day one of Nuvigil I immediately saw a difference.

HANG IN THERE,PAST RECORDS SHOULDN'T BE NECCESARY,CONSTANT FATIGUE SHOULD OF BEEN ENOUGH. DARN INSURANCE COMPANIES.

When Provigil's patent expires in two years, generics of this drug will hit the market. The cost will definitely plunge. There will be NO generic for Nuvigil until 2023. By getting us to use Nuvigil now, and insisting to our doctors that this is what we want, Cephalon will be sure to have another 25 years of big $$$$$. They are just protecting their market share. The free month's supply offer is just another lure to hook us! We sure do love FREE even if it will cost us more later.

Most disabled vets have families, so carry private health insurance and i am sure we cost them billions. So now we are passed off to the taxpayers and they save billions. The next time u hear a politician stand up saying how Medicare is going broke, laugh at them because they are the ones who have driven it there. Now my opinion is it was deliberate, a win-win for them. First the private ins. co.

How much does a laparotomy cost before insurance? I have health insurance and am just wondering.

It took a while for my insurance to approve the testing which I believe was submitted at a cost of $750.00. I will honestly tell you that I believe the neuropsych testing didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. And it revealed a few things that I didn't want to know. After going over the results with the psychologist I felt humiliated and about an inch tall. It's now official and in writing.

I checked with the provigil,my insurance wont cover it and even that they have a generic available for provigil (modafil) the price for the generic without insurance is $167 a month 200mg a day.My hepa said all stimulants have the potential for abuse Didrex is a class III schedule and is less addictive than the addrerall or the ritilan(which he cant write for anyway. Didrex was approved by the FDA in 1960 as a Central Nerve stimulant. The normal dosage is 2-50mg tabs daily and costs $22.

If there is no difference in the effectivness of generic and brand...why does the brand cost as much as it costs? I have seen numerous neurologists and had tried all the generic with basically the same negative results...a hangover and experiencing a sureal feeling...even to the point of falling resulting in a head injury along with hip and knee injuries...all attributable to the generic. As it has been explained to me by the neurologists is that the filler is the key.

There's Nuvigil, a similar medication used strickly for fatigue, but I am unsure the insurance coverage or cost on that. Concerta is of the methylphedamine type or in the same class as Ritalin, it is just newer than Ritalin and thus formulated differently. So something you might offer up to your doctor is a medication that was one of the first used in ADHD treatment and that is Adderall, which is of the amphetamine class, which is more pure in form.

I'm still suffering from severe sleep apnea and centrals and hypopneas according to sleepyhead software. does provigil do anything for sa or just mask symptoms? I tried theophylline for a few days but the stuff seems toxic and can cause heart arrythmias.

You may need to try one of the other meds used for fatigue, like amantadine or Adderall or Ritalin. Also, it would be a good idea to investigate why the fatigue is worse. As mentioned above, it might be a new relapse. You should have a CBC and a urinalysis to check for signs of infection - the most common cause of a new relapse. Or you may be getting worse sleep. A sleep study might be beneficial. Also have your thyroid checked.

But, if I can help me keep my job and working full-time (and it's not tooooo expensive), then I can try to shell out the extra money for it. I'm saying this, but have no idea how much it costs. If it costs as much as my Copaxone, then I'd like to take back what I just said. There's no way I could afford it then. I get a lot of leg fatigue, too. But, I'm sure my neuro won't believe that one either. Here's hoping that I can at least find something to get rid of the general fatigue.

Basically, I am a big cheerleader for Provigil for those who 1) can tolerate it, 2) can afford it. Some insurance plans will not approve it and it costs arund $10 a tablet. the nice thing is it is a med that you can take and stop and take again. So some people use it only for the days when they HAVE to accomplish stuff. The newest cousin of Provigil is Nuvigil and some of our members are on it. I hope this helps and I hope you stay with us.

I ask because I maxed out my script. plan w/insurance. Do you know if there is a generic form? I'm guessing you can take as needed rather than all the time? Appreciate your thoughts.

People tell me I should have went to the hospital, but I would never want my family to think I was taking prescription drugs, or assuming that I had a problem with them which they probably would. Also, we dont have health insurance and are struggling enough as is. An ambulance ride and treatment would have cost thousands of dollars. Anyway, for a while I was convinced what I had was a heart attack.

Strangely, though, when I switched between stimulant medications--from generic Dextrostat to generic Adderall--the strange side-effects of the thyroid medication go away. I get sensitivities to lots of things--meds that don't work often not only do not help, but make me feel anxious.

I don't know what I am going to do now. How can a generic drug cost so much. My thyroid medication is only $4 with any insurance. Nobody in the insurance companies really care about mental health issues nor do the government until someone kills someone then they are all talk and no action.
