Medication needed will take over half monthly income
I've been dealing with yeast infections since the beginning of the year. Take all advice, do the diet, species is common, and swabbed negative for ureaplasma mycoplasma. Now Im wanting to try a different medication. I've been taking Diflucan in multiples when infection reappears or doesn't go away completely. Now im in a loop of this every month. Dr prescribed Brexafemme but it's over 500 dollars.
My insurance denied it even though I've tried everything else. And when I thought I had a good coupon I read the fine print and Medicaid recipients are excluded from this coupon.
Hmm, well if I would buy it, it be over half my monthly fixed income.
How the hell does that all work out?
I need to have it. I've been sick for 7 months. Im at a loss and barely hanging onto sanity.
No idea what to do but go broke.

Thanks, will keep this in mind
Learned Brexafemme is not being sold right now after insurance would finally cover it.
Dr sent to insurance all that I've tried and they finally approved. But the medication is not being sold at the moment due to recall.
Thanks and that's good for you! My insurance finally covered the medication then I couldn't order it anywhere. Turns out there's been trouble with a recall and studies being pushed back.
My insurance finally approved Brexafemme just to learn that it's not available due to a recall and clinical trial problems. There isn't many options so I just got done with 14 days of Diflucan. This is the 5th time I've been treated this year and I feel like I still have it, am going back to gyno next week.
Im taking probiotics and boric acid suppositories. Just ordered probiotic suppositories. I even bought Benefiber which has probiotics and restricting diet. Yeast got cultured and it's the common species. Swabbed for mycoplasma and ureaplasma, which was negative. Blood sugar and A1C normal. Switched oral birth control to patch.
Don't feel good.
