carolinemc Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Anyone have an idea of costs for Epilepsy meds? I know that there will be different cost per drug but any advice on where I can find costing would be most welcome Thanks Caroline :wubclub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petals Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 http://www.homepharmacy.com.au/home/default.cfm The on line pharmacy should give you an idea. Also you might check with the pharmaceutical benefit scheme to see that the drug you take is available in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realitynotincluded Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 hi.... try and come out with as many tablets as possible.... first you have to sign up with a doctor about $80 if not bulk billed... if you/partner want or can drive you will have to see a neuro doc... before they sign you off $240 ish ... 1 script of two boxes of epilum for example costs $37-$38 a time... if doctors are tight asses expect to pay $10 everytime you need a script.usually is 3 repeats a time.....they do have generic brands which are cheaper.but not by much.... also they have big pharmacy's which are cheaper but only if you dont have to travel half an hour to get to them otherwise l dont think saving $6 is worth time and travel etc.....
