nexium

612551 tn?1450022175 In several other countries, Nexium can now be made into a generic drug because the Nexium people lost their lawsuits in those countries .) I've been tempted to try to get the inexpensive generic form of Nexium from places like India or the UK, but so far I haven't done so. I will be happy when Nexium finally becomes a generic here in the U.S. The cost is ridiculous. I, too, have to watch drug prices.
Avatar f tn Yep, Prilosec or the generic version should take care of it.
Avatar n tn Personally, I like Nexium. I think it is a better drug. I have a drug plan and I have to take Prilosec. I can't even get the trade name, I have to take the generic. I took Nexium for a few years and I do think it worked better for me. I don't know about water brash, sorry.
Avatar f tn My doctor told me prilosec, they cost $22.00. But he said go to sams & get the generic ones they were cheaper.they called omeprazole they cost $10.00, take 1 every morning.& ever since last week i been taking them & no acid reflex or heart burn.
Avatar n tn my insurence does not pay for brand Nexium. Only brand Nexium works. The company who makes Nexium will ok brand if I have a rejection from my Ins. Co. I called my Ins. co and they said that the do not send papers out that they do not pay for brands. How can I resolved this problem? thank you mary This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/1329224'>Nexium and Prilosec</a>.
Avatar m tn tenvir from cipla is good and cheap generic, there are also cheaper generics but dont remember the brand
Avatar f tn I am taking tagamet otc- Walmart generic brand and for me it is better than the rx ones- But that's just me....
Avatar f tn The best medicines I have been prescribed are Nexium and Protonix. Protonix has a generic available so is inexpensive and works perfectly for me. Studies have shown Nexium to be consistently the most effective but it is more expensive and not always covered by every health insurance plan. United Healthcare for example does not cover Nexium.
Avatar m tn I think insurance companies are dropping many drugs because acceptable generic equivalents are available, as is the case with Nexium (Esomeprazole). The generic version of the drug will work very well for you. I'm betting you will be just fine. I wonder if you have considered discussing tapering off/discontinuing Nexium/Esomeprazole and see what happens. After having the Nissen Fundoplication surgery I was able to discontinue taking the drug and have been symptom free.
Avatar n tn My company is changing insurance and the nexium is going to rise considerably in cost when we swich to cigna. I need a cost effective alternative to discuss with my doctor. The Nexium has been very effective for me. I wish I didn't have to change.
Avatar f tn Had been on Augmentin for a sinus infection, just finishing up the script, and take Crestor, Nexium, and Zyrtec on a regular basis. Symptoms started a few days after starting generic Zyrtec, which also caused unbelievable dryness that felt like I was dehydrated (no vomiting, though). A day after the chills, I noticed my urine was dark and my stools were very light, almost gray, and I started getting very itchy but no rash.
1369218 tn?1282423884 But if you lack insurance it can cost up to $150 a month on the name brands. Luckily there is also a lower cost generic version of Cytomel. Erfa is a Canadian product that is not imported for sale here by continental retail US pharmacys. The Rx is faxed to a Canadian pharmacy, you pay all out of pocket from a credit card, and its shipped here. The plus side is it does seem to be the best dessicated available due to its fillers, and the cost is under $25 per month even after shipping charges.
Avatar m tn I've been taking Nexium 40 mg. for about 4 years with no side effects. I was recently switched by my doctor to the generic brand Esomprazole Magnesium & have a very dry mouth. Is it possible it is from the generic med?
Avatar f tn Or the prescription nexium or the generic as i was prescribed the generic because my heartburn is so bad,i was actually sent to a Cardiologist because at first they thought it was my heart add the pain was so bad and constant. But do not take Tums all day everyday as too much can be dangerous.
296025 tn?1233256719 WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF PREVACID USE WITH HEP C? SINCE ITS EXPENSIVE IS THERE A GENERIC FORM?
Avatar m tn I have Barrett's Esophagus. I am currently taking Nexium 40mg. I am looking for ways to reduce the cost. Do you think Prilosec will work the same? However, I don't want to take any chances with the Barrett's Esophagus. Thank you!!
1632656 tn?1310693271 Can any one please tell me how much the Generic form of regular 20 mg's and Aderral xr 30 is now. I have recently decided to go back on meds with no insurance,, I am in California and I heard it is still quite expensive,, thank you.
Avatar f tn Patent comes off dec 2009 if I recall. As far as cost - if you have insurance once it's generic it usually goes on the cheaper generic copay list if you have that sort of insurance. so for instance if with your insurance you pay $30 for non-generic drugs on the approved list and $10 for generics on the approved list - you'd be paying $20 less/month for your valtrex. Typically it's 30% reduction in price when it goes generic initially for paying out of pocket. drugstore.
Avatar f tn Can anyone give me a ballpark of the cost for the suppressant drugs after a transplant. Just want to get an idea, know no one can give me exacts but any info would help. Thanks.
1801781 tn?1461629469 I am having to switch to the generic version of Lexapro as it is now available. Insurance wants the change and I am OK with it as the cost will be less. My question is has anyone been on it and can they tell a difference??
Avatar f tn Zantac 150 is what I take!
Avatar n tn the generic in india is absolutely the same as brands, it is just cheap and easy chemicals.....so easy to do.
572651 tn?1530999357 As far as Copaxone's rise in cost two things may be in play Mylan's generic Copaxone may get through the FDA soon and Lanquinimod the new Teva MS drug is behind schedule, Gileyna is already on the market. Copaxone is a third of Teva's sales. The stock price is falling and they promised there investors to double the stock price in 5 years.
1569985 tn?1328247482 After a few more weeks, the doctor told me to try taking just 20 mg of Nexium every other day, using the generic antacid as needed if I felt a little reflux. After about three weeks, I tried a Nexium every two days, using the generic antacid again as needed. By now you probably know the drill.My doctor just let me experiment from here on in.
