waiting for the other shoe to hurl

[Trilby]

Ah, not too nosey. I've no Rx coverage, and, you are right, they ARE giving antibiotics away for free here in Ohio, too. I was Rx'd a med called Z pack which I am guessing isn't one of the freebies. I believe the freebies are like Amoxicillin, etc. Anyway, I called around for prices and that's what I ended up with. The cough syrup is called Tussionex and the same story there. I asked why it cost so much and the pharmacist said, "because it works," which made me wonder why on earth they sell us medicine that doesn't work? So, like, the ones that really DO work cost? I don't get it. anyway, you can certainly google the meds or call your pharmacy to see if it's any cheaper in MI, but I doubt it is. Actually, i'd be kinda interested in knowing what they cost up there...betcha it's the same.

I think b/c I have pneumonia, I was given a big gun, antibiotic-wise. But, check out the tussionex. It's UNREAL! I called WalMart, Meijer, WalGreens, Krogers, and CVS! that's what TWO OUNCES cost! That's like a rare perfume or something!
