Coreg question

[Mike]

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know if there is, or any time soon will be, a generic for Coreg? The brand name is expensive!

Thanks,

Mike

As far as I can tell, no. Nothing anytime soon. Do you have insurance? If not, try going to www.needymeds.com and look it up to see what the programs qualifications are.

Eligibility Guidelines and Notes The patient must have no prescription coverage for the medication and have an income at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Level. The patient must also be a US resident. GlaxoSmithKline requests that an “Advocate” be the contact person for the patient throughout the entire process. The advocate can be any healthcare worker involved in the patient’s care (i.e., doctor, nurse, social worker, or someone in the healthcare office or facility). The application needs three signatures: patient, doctor and advocate. If the patient chooses not to enroll in Part D and is not eligible for the Low Income Subsidy Program, then s/he may eligible for this program. The application can be filled out and printed on the website, but each application need an individual number (which the website does automatically.)

They have been running ads for a free months prescription and my cardio seems to have no shortage of samples.
