I find the Arikayce very easy to take. I am on a MWF schedule. The retail cost before insurance is ridiculous. You get 4 boxes, each with 7 vials. That lasts one month if you use it daily, and two months or more if MWF. It retails for about $37K (I know!!!), but good insurance brings that down to $60 for me, and with their assistance program, some people pay even less. It is very effective!

After years of private insurance, I was glad to get on Medicare but the part D coverage is terrible and so widely different for these tier 4 & 5 drugs. Maybe some day our elected politicians will cover all of us over 65 equally. Even the doughnut hole change in 2025 does not address what is covered per plan

Thank you. That’s what worries me about the cost if that’s what they give me are you drug resistant
