Price of zytiga

[Cynthgob]

When shopping for a Medicare D plan I found one that dropped the generic zytiga to appx 319$. It’s a Walgreens price. If any of you are switching plans it’s worth a look.

[6357axbz]

Which plan is that?

[Cynthgob]

Can you private message me? I don’t want to seem like I’m pushing an insurance company. Maybe others have that price too?

[j-o-h-n in reply to Cynthgob]

Push all you want..... we're used to it.... from life partners, doctors, nurses, insurance carriers, neighbors and etc.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Just received a letter from Humana stating that Zytiga was no longer covered under my Pan D. I assume they are forcing doctor to prescribe a generic. Have dr appointment in a couple of weeks, will find out.

[JazzMan42 in reply to Ron53]

Same here with Humana. Both of my MO’s have assured me that the generic Abiraterone is as effective as Zytiga, just maybe with different fillers.

According to goodrx site Costco is charging 286 and change for 30/250mg

[Steveriedy in reply to kainasar]

Yes but you use 4 of those a day

[GoBucks]

Almost no one gets 30 pills. The price for 120 is is not 4 times $286.

[Cynthgob in reply to GoBucks]

The price I saw for 120 pills was 331$ generic

[GoBucks in reply to Cynthgob]

Just not seeing that anywhere.

[Hidden in reply to GoBucks]

That’s the correct price

[cesces]

Would you please reconsider posting the plan.

Thank you

For a better price, buy directly from India. My husband paid $160 and then $230.

Several people on this forum have contact

numbers for purchasing directly from India.

[Steveriedy in reply to Coco2535]

I would like the info to get it from India

[Amppmt in reply to Coco2535]

Hi how are you? Man i please get the info from Indi where you buy the generic Zytiga? Thank you so much!

[Coco2535 in reply to Coco2535]

My husband has been buying the generic for Zytiga for two years now. It started out at $160 a bottle. Now it is $400 including tax and shipping. The contact is Mr. Singh telephone number [phone]

It would be helpful to give the information. There are so many separate post about Zytiga costs I wish we could consolidate them.

[larry_dammit]

That’s great news.

[mcp1941]

My plan D copay for generic Zytiga is $121.

[Hidden in reply to mcp1941]

Please share what plan. Thanks.

That’s the best I’ve seen

[Steveriedy in reply to mcp1941]

Can't use this in Florida, I think

[Hidden]

Everyone is posting a great part D plan price but no one will say which one. Makes you wonder if the truth is being told here.

[Cynthgob in reply to Hidden]

Check out blue cross Medicare rx basic pdp. My price for 120 pill was 331$ . I thought this was good.

Cigna seems to have a better price of the choices I have. But, it has an astrix ...that says that they have to approve of it first? Then in the fine print, they have to decide if it is necessary and appropriate?

[Cynthgob in reply to Buddy1950]

That hasn’t been a problem

[Hidden]

I just got notified from blue cross of kansas it is only using generic Zytiga. I apologize to whoever read my post. Learn something every day. For me Im going off in February until it reoccurs. I have been assured the generic is equal.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Answering myself. Seems like blue cross has taken Zytiga 250 mg pills off their list but still has Zytiga 500 mg pills on the list. Tier 5 but there. Makes no sense. I have to change my script to 2 pills from 4 per day. Also they didn’t say they were keeping the 500mg. I had to look it up and make a 30 minute phone call.
