Is anyone taking repatha

I have been taking Repatha for 2 years now... $5 before Medicare and now $185 since I'm on Medicare but it has worked from Day 1! I had to switch to Praluent for a year because suddenly Repatha wasn't on my Medicare plan paid $165 and this year 2024 - Praluent is out and Repatha is now on the plan at $185. Repatha actually took my #s down even more so than the Praluent, immediately and pharmacist said Repatha was better.

Love Repatha. Been taking for 6 months. Recommend you send your CCTA to AI analysis at CLEERLY. Allows detailed tracking of the success or failure of your treatment by quantitative measurement of dangerous low density plaque.

BTW I’m 78 and last CAC SCORE was 1900 as well. MA cost is $85 per quarter on my plan.
Also, CLEERLY analysis will probably cost you $750 out of pocket- well worth the cost!

With Humana supplemental insurance pay $780, mol, for 1st 6 doses every year until deductible, last 6 doses $371. Dealing with Humana’s “Centerwell Pharmacy” ordering process every 3 mos. is so abysmally awful & frustrating you might have a heart attack re-filling.
It drops cholesterol like a rock was around 150 on statins, about 40 now with less restrictive diet.

Three years ago I had a CAC of 769 and total cholesterol of 240 and went on statins.
Now I have a CAC of 1,206.
Echo and CT Angio are good. 55% and no blockages.
LDL is 44 and HDL is a bit low at 40. Total is 100.
I just had my LP(a) score come in at of 206.
The follow up with my cardio and primary are several months out.
I have read conflicting information about the ability to change LP(a).
I am wondering if Repatha is a consideration.
57 y.o., physically active and have a low carb, low saturated fat diet (6'1" and 180 lbs) Family hx of arteriolscholerosis and stroke.

I've added Repatha to my mix for a bit over a year. Lowered my Lp(a) from 185 to 69, along with an amazing drop in both total cholesterol (something that 80 mg statin plus Zetia could not do) and lowered Lipoprotein B down to also normal levels. Also dealing with bad genes

Good luck in your journey
