My insurance won’t cover my tirzepatide, and the Eli Direct vial price is still more than I can afford. I’ve been on compounded 5.0 mg for months, now just 10 lb from goal weight, paying $179/month. Thank goodness for compounding pharmacies!❤
Congratulations Stacy, what a great accomplishment for the work it takes even with these helpful medications. I am hopeful at some point, this medication will move to the Medicare approved list so many others can reap the benefits.
I am very very happy for this. I have to pay cash. It took a bit for my dr to contact and send my prescription to Lilly direct. I got a text from Lilly today that they are working on my script. I hope it comes soon. I am 8 days from my shot day. Your information of waiting between shots is encouraging.
Thanks so much for sharing part of your journey! How helpful for others considering the Lilly direct route! It sounds like you're doing great and nearing your pkg delivery -- and I hope to hear that your Rx comes soon!!! (:
