3079363 tn?1363273715 My new employer uses Express Scripts as our pharmacy provider. Has anyone noticed any side effects or lack of effectiveness with the manufacturers they use. I saw a post on another site where a person thinks she may be getting diarrhea from the new baclofen that Express is using. It made me wonder about some things that have been going on with me. My feet and ankles have been swollen since last Wed. when I got my first order of Baclofen from them. They hurt!

I was an eye-opening documentary about how so many people are overdosing and getting arrested for purchasing Oxy's from pain clinics in Florida and reselling them where they live.

Avatar f tn The win at CVS helps Gilead recover from a loss to AbbVie at Express Scripts Holding Co., the biggest US drug-benefits manager, which chose last month to favor Viekira Pak in many cases.

200956 tn?1425591539 I was planning to start treatment the beginning of Jan. as I wait to get help with the copay. Will the Express Scripts decision to not cover Harvoni affect me if I wait until Jan when my copay will reset for the year? Is that preapproval written in stone? I am hearing about Express Scripts and CVS but have not heard anything about my United Health PBM which is OptumRX. It seems that if Express Scripts excludes Harvoni the other PBM will follow.
Avatar n tn Yes the best place is to call at the pharmacy regarding interactions. You can also check on this websites for more details if you feel like the pharmacist haven't told you enough details or if you want to check yourself before you call.

Here is the website you can use if you don't have a iPhone - https://online.epocrates.
6708370 tn?1471490210 Pharmacy-benefit managers such as Express Scripts serve as middle men, managing drug benefits for insurers and employers.

1378325 tn?1285346625 Hi, I get my prescriptions through Express Scripts and they recently contacted my doctor about a generic for Effexor ER called Venlafaxine. The problem is, I now take the extended release Effexor and the supposed generic for this med is $70 more than the brand name Effexor ER. How could a generic subsitute be more expensive than the brand name, just doesn't make any sense to me. If I chose to take the non-extended release generic Venlafaxine, it would be $80 cheaper than the Effexor ER.
