BESREMi Ropeginterferon alfa-2b is available in Austria and Germany

[Alexbits]

After hearing very encouraging information regarding effectiveness of BESREMi Ropeginterferon alfa-2b from the doctor in my local clinic (based on clinical trial they run for several years) I checked the price in Austrian drug store. At the moment the cost is 2880 Euro per 1 prefilled 250 mcg pen with 2 needles.

The price is PRETTY high at the moment.

From what I understand, the starting dose is 100 mcg, every 2 weeks. Later it can be reduced to 50 mcg, according to the included protocol.

It is not partially covered by your national health care?

[Alexbits in reply to Aneliv9]

No, in my country, very few drugs are covered. Maybe for Austrians/Germans it's covered.

Hi Alex,

I'm no-German and never have had to pay for my drugs here in Germany. Is it only in Austria so?

Cheers,

Malek.

The thing is I don't live in Germany. In Ukraine at the moment. Our healthcare system rarely covers something advanced. From what I know, BASREMi is available in Austria and Germany.

Oh, this is tough.
