Re: Med costs
hi all
my recent prescriptions [for a three month period] priced out this way:
$CAD @ 67.88% = $USD
Sinemet cr 100/25 qty 90 63.13

fluoxetine HCL 20 mg qty 270 306.80
208.25
______
______
total $CAD 833.72 $USD
565.44
since i am covered by ontario's disability support program
i only had to pay out $CAD 2.00 per subscription = $CAD 8.00 [$USD 5.43]
for which i am grateful [i luv this country!]
since my disability pension is $CAD 11,110.00 [$USD 7,542.00 annually]
NOT looking for empathy sympathy whatever
but
facts is facts
and
knowledge is power
and
information is for exchanging
and
medical care is not for profit
all imho, of course!
