My Blood Pressure Is Up!!!

[patmac]

I've been taking  blood pressure med's , it's down 130/70 i'm paying  $19.00 for 90 pills.                                    

 

I also take  med,s to help with trip's to the head at night . Cost of that med went from $30.00 to $139.00 a month ,Witch has my blood pressure up.  Is it  just here in the States, or is big Pharma  increasing    prices allover the world,  I go on line ,Prices of a most things in Canada are 70% cheaper but it takes about 3/4 to weeks receive it after they get the  fax!!!   So are things bettor in the Philippines ? Like see a Dr and get the script  filled it at a  pharmacy at a reasonable price !!!! :unsure:     

I plan on seeing a Dr when i get there  just for check ups and get the few meds i need    Thank's All

Strange coincidence, me reading this when I just got back from the Generica Pharmacy with my month's meds.

 

Cost for a 1 month supply of everything I need:  1,521 pesos.

 

That includes the Generic versions of:

 

Prevacid

Losartan

Crestor

Metformin

Gliclazide

Multivitamins

Vitamin C

 

30 tabs/pills of each

 

AND I got a free umbrella for spending so much money (Under US$33)

 

So if this is the kind of medecine you take then you will be fine here.  BUT if you need Levitra, (grumble grumble), there is no generic version of that exact medicine and I have to buy it in Cebu at 1,000 pesos per pill.

Sh..t Dave, I thought I was the only walking pharmacy, but I have a brother!

Levitra, have you tried  black ant, maxi man which you can buy in Angeles for less than 1000 pesos a carton, 10 boxes x 10 tabs.

They will give a rhino a hard on!!!!

Moving along, does anyone take Lyrica over there (used for mental health conditions, but also for nerve pain suffereRs) which is me and they have given me a real lift in life quality (5 disc ruptures in back for the non-believers),  I get them back home in National Health but am anticipating that will change soon, but have to go back every 6 mths. Priced them here in Thailand 4000bht box and a box lasts me a week.

Also cholerterol Lipidor or generi, blood pressure 'Twinista' or generic?  These were also very expensive, worked outmuch cheaper to fly back to Oz.

APART FROM THAT I AM FINE11

Caiis 20mg ts over &35.00 a pill here

 

That particular medication can be found on street corners for low cost but also low safety as you don't know what is in it.  But the price is only 500 pesos for a container of 10 x 80mg pills.
