Hi Asma1364,

Taking all costs into consideration, such as; vials of medication, vial wastage and administration costs, NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) suggest that the cost per administration of Benlysta is £765.50. You can read more about this here: nice.org.uk/news/press-and-...

Have you discussed Benlysta with your doctor?

How long will Benlysta treatment of £765.50 last, is that monthly or will that be several treatments. Thanks for showing this site. Very interesting reading .

The recommended dose is 10mg. The smallest vial available is 120mg for £121.50. It's likely that this price is for several treatments but how long exactly would have to be discussed with your doctor.
