Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Oh, yes. One more question. Is the liquid available as a generic? Seems like it is, but I'm hazy on that. B _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Barbara Seaman Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2005 8:18 AM To: Subject: RE: carnitor Maggie, This is interesting. Can you tell me if the liquid is priced similarly to the tablets or does it cost more? I realize the co-pay would be the same, but I wonder about actual cost to insurance. (Janet, do you know the cost difference, if any?) I would like to try the liquid but because it has sucrose, I have not. However, it might work dripped into my j-tube. Carnitor causes me a lot of GI distress and it would be wonderful if the liquid would improve that problem. I'm glad you found a solution.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Yes, the liquid IS available in a generic. I''ve only tried the brand liquid. I think the prices are comparable (tablet vs. liquid on the brand name stuff). Maggie > Oh, yes. One more question. Is the liquid available as a generic?
