@lacraig1 "My Zytiga costs $1500 a month". I'm thinking you may need to shop around. I pay $76 a month after I was paying much more than that from a place my doctors sent me to. I now go to one of my local supermarket pharmacies for mine. Talk to local pharmacies and ask them what kind of discounts are available.
Good luck!

@bonanzaman
Zytiga has been generic for a few years. There’s no reason you have to pay those kinds of prices for it. Ask for the generic version.
I was paying about $20 a month three years ago, Before it went generic I was paying around $200 a month.
@bonanzaman Always request the "Cash" price.
@bonanzaman The generic version of Zytiga is Abiraterone. I paid $2.50 per month. Zytiga would have been $1,600 and Xtandi (Enzalutimide) is also $1,600. Talk to your doctor and/or pharmacist. I am on Medicare with Kaiser Permanente.

@bonanzaman That's what it costs. I pay nothing. Some kind of program. I think this might be the manufacturer, a specialty pharmacy.
