Medication Question For Members Outside The U.S,

Mitchell · Jan 8, 2010

My mom has a lung condition, and is on two medications. One is Combivent, and the other is Advair, 50/100. Recently, her medications have increased substantially in price. I wanted to post to inquire if any members outside the U.S, especially in Canada, or the UK, are on one or both of these medications, and if so, how much you pay for them. Additionally, if anyone would have a contact number that my mom might be able to call, to see if she can obtain the medication at a reduced price. She is a senior citizen on a fixed income, and is looking for any savings she can get.

Thanks,
Mitch

I'll ask my GP next time I see her. I'll get back to you.

Mitch, it is my understanding that many pharmaceutical companies have reduced rates or even free medication for people on limited incomes. They just don't advertise them much, if at all. If I can find some links I'll post them or pm them to you.
