My medical oncologist sent 3 prescriptions to the pharmacy. She said the vitamin D supplement was available over-the-counter, but she provided the prescription in case the pharmacy could fill it for cheaper. The over-the-counter version turned out to be cheaper, plus it was on sale, buy one get one free.
Furosemide (to reduce swelling):
Retail price was $11.99, our prescription co-pay was $4.41.
Klor-Con (potassium chloride):
Retail price was $19.09, our prescription co-pay was $10.00.
Vitamin D3: $10.79
Total cost to date: $188,506.45
With insurance, cost to me: $4,254.63
