Drug prices up/Fosamax

@normahorn I hadn't heard of this online pharmacy before -- thank you! I checked it out -- has the generic only ($6), so it is cheaper with my insurance. Again, still wondering about the rise in price for Fosamax (non-generic). I'm assuming that last year and earlier, it was cheaper; that it has suddenly gone up in price in 2026. But perhaps I am wrong.

@sebutler I suspect that Fosamax isn't more expensive now, but that the drug plans you looked at are assessing it at a higher price. A steep markup often results in more money going to the insurance company.
