I went to fill my my teenage daughters RX,doxycycline. $1100. I had to use some special card by the manufacturer that magically got it down to $10. I may be getting old but I remember getting giant bottles of tetracycline for about five dollars a bottle. I have driven down to Mexico and bought doxycycline for less than five bucks. Why is a really old and hardly cutting edge antibiotic costing this much? ( the generic was still 500 dollars)
Your daughter’s Rx must have been brand-name Vibramycin (I see you realize that). I just bought #100 100mg generic doxycycline online for $73. The price has gone up as I used to buy it for $25. As you say, at a walk in chemist or farmacia in a third-world country it would be less.
Ahhh, you must be referring to Doryx. That drug makes me angry every time I see the bottle. It contains plain old doxycycline, but in a super special once a day time release tablet as opposed to the mean evil twice a day dosage one can purchase for about $950 less.
