Hi Guys,
My insurance will not cover brand name medications. Even though Nardil has been around for over 50 years, the market is not large enough to justify the expense of bringing out a generic in the US. Thus my monthly bill for Nardil alone is over $150. This is on top of my $700 per month insurance cost(self employed) and countless other medical, dental and optical expenses. It adds up fast.Does anybody know a source where I can legally buy phenelzine for a lot cheaper. I use 180 15mg tablets monthly. My MD does not have a problem writing the script. I have bought other medications on prescription from Canadian on line pharmacies. I'm sure the actual product came from a lab in India.
If I could switch to some other medication I would. I have been on 45+ different combinations of psychotropic medications. Phenelzine is the only medication that works for me. I have tried to come off of it at least a half dozen times in the past 12 years. Within months, my major atypical depression always returns.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jedi
