    There is no reason a medicine thats been around since 1999 should cost that much. No wonder insurance is expensive if it's paying ridiculous inflated prices for drugs!

    I take generic for my other meds but this is one that the generic wasnt good and there were many complaints.

    I've been thinking about this all day and now I don't even want to take it. If I get ins to pay, it's still a high copay.

    Then what if I do okay on it and they change their minds again and I'll be left hanging and stopping these type of drugs are very bad....suicidal thoughts, crying, etc.

    I'll give Patsy's suggestion a try...

    Just don't feel good about supporting such crooks.

    @Chrissy Page - I hope you do try it Chrissy
    I've been through hell healthwise, tried everything going because all the doc suggests is 'side effects' from medication
    No, thank you !
    So, after trying loads of supplements, I have now found those that help me and don't cause a reaction.
    I took Rhodiola last year when I had a meltdown - they did help me but I take so many supplements, I didn't continue
    with them once I felt better ................:)
    I was talking to you this morning around 7am - did ya hear me ? ........................:D

    Yes, I did hear you....love your accent! :)

    I think I will try it, Patsy. The more I think about Wellbutrin the less I want to take it.
