@sann - oh my gosh.  I take Xarelto but hadn't heard of Eloquis shortages like you've described. Have you found any yet?


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I don't know if this will help but look into prescription programs like Good Rx, Singlecare Rx, WellRx and RxSave. I hope you find a more affordable way and that your husband does well with or without the medication. Well wishes to you both!🙏🏼🤗

Retired military and with Tricare for Life I get my Eliquis from Express Scripts.  It's $39 for a 90 day supply.

My Dad takes it, and has for years.

 

Here is an opportunity when we can be Grateful for our insurance companies, rather than knocking them.

 

Wish everyone who doesn't / can't get insurance could get some help too.

 

No blame, no shame.

Mark Cuban lives in Dallas and owns the NBA team Dallas Mavericks, He has all sorts of businesses. I read the pharmacy thing is like Good RX which doesn't help me or DH at all. Hopefully some can benefit from it but our income isn't low enough. Never knew we were " rich"! 

Update: DH finally agreed to get the Eliquis and has been on it for about ten days now. With insurance he paid $140 for a 90 day supply. He takes it twice a day. I am so grateful for all the feedback from everyone. Very helpful!

Speak with your doctor, there are less expensive alternatives.
