@maryro check the price for the higher doses and also for using a syringe, the price for 7.5 for me was $71/month and 10 was $83. The bottle and syringe is about half of that.

@maryro I am on Medicare and I signed up for the Medicare plan with my prescription insurance so I only have a $2,000.00 out of pocket per year for my prescriptions. I didn't sign up for that plan until August of this year so that $2,000.00 will be divided into the remaining months of the year and that will be what I will pay per month. All of my covered prescriptions go towards that $2,000.00 maximum so I will hit it this month. Wellcare did not cover the total cost. The first month I bought it direct from Lilly and paid $400.00 for 2.5mg. The second month I got it through Wellcare and it was around $680.00 The third month it was the same but from now on it will be 100% covered. If you can sign up for that Medicare program it is worth it. Next year it will be much better for me as I will be starting in January and my prescription costs will be divided throughout the whole year. I hope this helps.
