Anyone on Inbrija

[Adnelg54]

Finally got our Inbrija prescription.

2 capsules at a time seems too strong ( PWP is on a low dose of rytary due to DBS).

Jury is still out. Anyone else try it yet?

I think it's too expensive for most people at this point at $32 per dose.

The manufacturer will assist with cost ( I believe).

We pay a lot for our insurance but get a lot for it. After $400 out of pocket we pay no more. So inbrija costs $0

You are very lucky. We pay a lot for our insurance, too and have almost $16,000 in deductible.

I also got mine for $0. Had to have a specialty pharmacy that is connected with my Medicare plan handle things. They needed to know my annual income, etc. It was pretty easy. I asked my neuro to start the paperwork to get things going, and the rest just happened pretty much effortlessly. Got a pphone call from the specialty pharmacy that handles Imbrija. They said that will be $500 copay. I said no way. They said well, let me check on that. Came back to me and asked a few questions such as annual income, SSDI monthly check amount $ and next thing I knew the package was delivered for $0. Here I sit at midnight wondering whether to chance taking it tonight. Now. I’m going off and wondering if this is a good or bad time. My girlfriend is here in case it has any bad effects. However, we fly tomorrow to a family event in Canada (from California). Don’t need any big surprises. So, any advice about first time taking? I’m on a low dose of 1.5 tabs of sinemet 25-100 every 4 hrs plus a little bit of Artane and 1 cap gabapentin.

Any encouragement and/or advice welcome!

Bob
