Prices vary depending on where you shop. But here's an online pharmacy
that you can compare with:
http://www.drugplace.com
Their 500mg bottles come 30 tablets to the bottle at $126.69 so 60
(two bottles) would run $253.38. Does your doc know you don't have
prescription insurance???
The price is so high because it hasn't gone generic yet. So if money
is an object, you might get the doc to write a prescription for
Acyclovir instead. As you can see from the same site, a bottle of 100
tablets at 400mg each can be had for $27.49.
Granted, the dosage will be higher so there's not a direct price
correlation. Also, the dosage of either Valtrex or Acyclovir is
determined by whether or not you'll be taking them daily for
suppression vs only during outbreaks. Either way, generic Acyclovir
will be quite a bit less expensive.
