Re: Fw: [LDN_Users]4-ap pricing

[Guest guest]

This is one reason, why reform efforts for our health care system have

to deal with costs. Obama's plan ignores situations like this.

BTW...the original post is from a pharmacist, not Tom Bayuk...:-) He

may be mad at this too but the Pharmacist (Skip of Skip's Pharmacy?) is

the one who is really hot.

I don't have the answers to this problem. It involves research costs

(who pays for them?), patent rights (How long are they legal?),

acceptable markup levels, etc.

For those of you waiting for the " new " and " improved " 4 ap. Well sit

down, the price for a 30 days supply just came out. $1056 for a 30 day

supply. I am once again embarrassed by my profession. The cost of

goods is less than $20.00. I can understand them wanting money for

their clinical studies, but this is Bovine Feces. I would recommend

that no one buys it. Let them go out of business. " I am fed up and

won't take it anymore. " These folks are bottom dwellers of the worst

kind. They didn't discover the drug. We have been compounding it for

over 10 years now. They didn't discover the s/r formula that has been

available for over 20 years. They did the clinical studies on a drug

they already knew would work. DUH. Now the FDA has given then 17 years

exclusivity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and who is going to pay, YOU

ARE!!!!!! You cannot believe how pissed off I am right now.

Okay so you say the insurance companies will pay for it. WHO IS PAYING

THE INSURANCE COMPANIES BILLS-YOU ARE. Maybe medicare/medicaid will

pay for it. WHO IS PAYING MEDICARE/MEDICAID BILLS- YOU ARE.

Now I am a capitalist. I believe in making a profit. BUT THIS IS NOT A

PROFIT THIS IS RAPE OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU . How dare these

people take advantage. Well screw them. You take your chances when you

compete, show them how competition really works. Don't buy it. Let

them keep their drugs. Don't let your doc rx them to you, tell the doc

you are happy right where you are. Tell your senator tell your

congressman/woman. tell your governor that they shouldn't have this on a

formulary.

Okay, I am so pissed off I am going to get myself in trouble.

MFCSPFB!@#$%^ & *()_+.

pass this email along to who ever you want. I am gunning for these guys

now.

I certainly would not be mad at anything like this...I was simply trying to

share some valuable MS information w`ith others with MS by forwarding it. Why

in the world would you think that I was offended.. ??
