I have taken Factive once a month for 5 days and have been handling in great. I have not developed tendonitis and its helping my bartonella. I can not take any other meds for bart so its been my lifesaver. My doctor wants me to take it 5 days a week every week but my insurance will not cover it. If anybody can send me coupons or PM me if you know where I can get some. Thanks.
God Bless,
Lindz

See if this will work. Get your RX filled for 5 at a time until they won't let you use the coupon any more.
If that coupon doesn't work, ask your doctor's office to contact the drug manufacturer to see if they will send any coupons. My doctor was able to do this for me for awhile. Then I had to pay out of pocket for several months. Super expensive drug but it was helpful.

LuLu, I'm sure if your insurance is saying they will not pay for it a copay coupon will be irrelevant.
I haven't worked with factive but I may in the future. I went to Canadadrugs website as they have a good reputation to my knowledge.
They offer a generic factive for sale that is very affordable made by Glenmark. I googled Glenmark briefly and they come across as a well known world wide reputable generic company. Notice I used the word briefly in my search.
Just something to think about and research for yourself. Perhaps others on this board may know more about Glenmark generics.
