Time for the dreaded phone call to the insurance company. Make sure you have current Journavx data in hand. The only recommended dose is 50 mg twice a day. Seems they would have to cover the FDA approved dose, not just make up their own coverage, especially if the doctor ordered twice a day.
You won’t know until you try!
Glad your doctor prescribed it for you.

If you go to the journavax web site you’ll see that the loading dose is 100 mg but after that is 50 mg once a day. My doctor is prescribing it above the manufacturer’s recommended daily and that’s the reason why my insurance won’t cover it. I’m not quite sure where you got your information from but it is incorrect. Check out the Journavax web site
