@beaquilter hello
I tried to respond a lot earlier, but they blocked me. I provided the phone number of the place that I think can help you. onc360 it's a specialty pharmacy in Kentucky, where I get my Zytiga. they have an organization that can help. I pay nothing where the cost is $1500.
You'll have to find the number yourself. let's see if this works

@beaquilter Zytiga is a super Lupron. It will take your Testosterone down way below what Lupron will do. As a result, you get the same effect as Lupron. So adding Lupron won’t really make much difference. It also is generic so the price is very low.
I cannot understand why your insurance doesn’t cover zytiga. It is covered by Medicare. I had it for 2 1/2 years and it was covered.
Instead of Lupron, he could get Orgovyx, Since it’s a pill, it is covered. It does cost $2600 a month, The insurance should cover most of it. Medicare drug max is $2100 next year. You don’t pay anything more for and medication all year if you are on Medicare..
