Tablet form is really cheap, it's about €30 a month for my 32 monthly tablets. But if they switch me to injection form, it I'll be €140 per month. I have a card which means I pay up to €144 per month, and the government pays the rest. I work so that means I don't qualify for a medical card, which gives you prescriptions for almost nothing. Hence why I would really like to avoid that switch.
wow, that's odd! Like a answered to Caroline, here in the Netherlands the shots are even cheaper than the pills. Maybe it's a brand issue? Cause there are several brands. Metoject was more expensive than my "Teva" injection, but Metoject was produced bij Teva... so might be worth to look into that.
Hmm, yes. May be interesting to do some research. Thanks for the idea.
That's quite interesting that injection would be cheaper than the pills. The pills I take aren't a brand name, I don't think. They seem generic but I'll double check it out of curiosity.
Yes, and with injection you have the same; there are generic and brandnameversions. For example metoject vs teva injection.
