In the US I've had this happen for a generic.
The pharmacist told me that they were having a hard time confirming my insurance. After a ridiculously long delay, I asked how much the drug was to pay for out of pocket... It was $12. My copay was $10 anyway. So both the pharmacist and I wasted a lot of time and hassle trying to save me $2.
- ipqk 6y agoI think they don't want to make judgements about your ability to play. It's one reason why there's prescription-strength ibuprofen. I can personally just go buy OTC ibuprofen and take the required dosage, but some people can't afford that, so they get the prescription strength where their out-of-pocket cost is $0.
- mattbessey 6y agocan't afford it? in the UK ibuprofen and paracetamol are like, 20p for a pack of 16! though I do miss the giant packs you get in the US, all pills come in small blister packs with purchase limits in all shops, to make overdosing more difficult
- nostromo 6y agoThat’s about the same price as on Amazon in the US. Poverty is real and for them every dollar counts.
