Does anyone have an idea of how much I can expect to spend on IV therapy. I have Kaiser, so probably no insurance help.

Sorry about the double post.

It depends - if you are getting 2g ceftriaxone a day, the cost can range from $600-$1000 month, but some patients have gotten their costs down below $500/month. That is for the consumables, it does not cover the procedure to place a PICC or port, and does not cover nursing care.

Since were are on this topic around how much is it for IV for other antibiotics such as zithromax, doxy, and gentamicin. Some of these are cheaper I hope?
