Question:
Anyone here take Lexapro - quick question?
With my insurance, Lexapro costs $30. Doesn't matter what dosage I buy. I was prescribed 20mg, but I have, for most of the time I've been on it, been taking 10mg. I've whittled it down to 5mg, but I still buy a 20mg bottle because I can get it for the same price as a 10mg bottle (saving money). I just cut the pills into 1/4's. Though I don't think I need Lexapro any more (I'm doing much better, and don't like the idea of taking AD's long-term), I plan to stay on 5mg for at least a couple months more. Though, I'm thinking of dropping my health insurance because it has just gotten too expensive. I know the regular price for Lexapro (10mg) is $65.00, but what about 20mg? Does it work the same as my insurance - no matter what pill size is, it's all one price? Or are the 20mg bottles twice as much?
Also, I used to see commercials about a drug discount plan for people who make under a certain amount of $. It may be just in Ohio - I forget its name, and no longer see the ads. Anyone know?
