I take several meds, and one is $200. a month (neurontin). Don't know if there is a generic or not, I just started taking it for a rare disorder called "orthostatic tremor". I called a Canadian pharmacy yesterday but it takes too long to go that route, at least this month, I am nearly out and need to fill my prescription. It is just disgusting what drug companies can get away with, and all the ads just up the prices so badly. I sure hope the clout of the AARP gets us somewhere. I am too yung for Medicare, but my mother in law was taking the cancer drugs and I would hear how expensive her meds are. Dawn
