Tymlos cost

Posted by yogagirl57 @yogagirl57, Oct 26 8:37am

Hello! I just was recommended Tymlos from my Endo. Can anyone tell me how much or if it is covered by insurance? I have Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal. TIA.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Osteoporosis & Bone Health Support Group.

Hi, What I am thinking is fix the tooth with a temporary fix, wait at least 3 months to do the oral surgery. Fix any other teeth which may have old fillings and might do the same thing. Then start on a med for osteoporosis. Actually my doctor wants to start Tymlos, which is an injection every day, OMG!! I'm still searching for answers, keep in touch.

@jamiebones This is funny because I am going through a dental nightmare right now where I think I need 2 root canals. There is no way I start any Tymlos until this situation is over. I also have a Uveitis flare (inflammation of the retina) so I'm dealing with that too! After I get all this fixed up I will probably start Tymlos. I have too many other things going on right now.....

@yogagirl157, Humana's retail cost is $2667 a month. For me, my copay is $707.

But Jan 1st the Medicare coverage gap ends and covered meds will have a $2000 out of pocket maximum for the year.
