guys,

I had to post this as soon as I found out. Without any help from insurance, I had the Costco pharmacy order me generic Rocephin from the company TEVA, and it only cost me $179.00 for a box of 30 vials. That is 1 month of use!! this is great news because the non-generic form costs over 2 thousand dollars. There is hope for us. By the ceftriaxone from TEVA to save money!! Good luck everyone!

rebecca999, Thanks for the tip. I have lots of people asking where to get IV meds cheaper. WOW that is a great price. I paid over $700.00 per week for generic rocephin last year for 4 months!!!!. Where is TEVA?
We don't have a COSTCO around here? The Haperin and syringes shouldn't cost too much and are your having a nurse come once a week? How are you going to handle all of the other stuff mentioned? Just curious.

Thanks for sharing. That's a fantastic price. When I called Costco I was quoted a much higher price but I guess it all depends on location and timing.

I found an infusion company (Infuserve) in Florida that provides iv meds (balls), pharmacist/nurse on call 24 hours a day to answer questions and all supplies (saline, heparin, alcohol wipes, bandage change kit, gloves, etc.) for $187 per week. Shipping was approximately $52 and can be arranged once a month as opposed to once a week to save money. I realize this is much more than $179 per month but still much less than $700 per week.

Good luck to all!

SCORPIO, Now that you posted I remember you told us about that place and price awhile ago. Thanks for posting it again. I will pass it along.
