Viagra / Sildenafil

[QUOTE=Gigabyte40;2847604]Yes, Revatio is sildenafil citrate, same as Viagra. Revatio comes in 20 mg tablets so it takes 5 of them to equal 1 100 mg Viagra. Some of us don't need 100 mg at a time so 2 or 3 Revatio might do the trick for you.

Ask your doctor to prescribe Revatio instead of Viagra. They have the same ingredient.

Here is what I paid, your cost could be different. This was the total cost to me without insurance paying anything on it:

Qty 10 Revatio 20 mg cost me $16.00 at the drug store.

That is $1. 60 per pill for 20 mg or $8 per dose if I take 5 at a time to equal 100 mg.

$8 per dose is still expensive, but the pharmacist said the price per pill might be less if my doc prescribes 20 or 30 or more at a time.

I'll keep you posted.

GB40.[/QUOTE]The stuff works great for me. I take 2-3 as necessary. I experimented and 1 is not enough for me. 2 gets the ball rolling. 3 allows me to hammer nails into a 2 x4. 3 also seems to last something like 12-18 hours. I think I get an added benefit due to some pretty intense time I spend in the gym along with a vitamin and aspirin every day. Plus, I also don't drink much at all, if ever any more. Admittedly, The doctor looks at me sideways when I ask for the prescription. It's been fairly bad since I had to take a lot of pain killers a few years ago. The average price for me is a hair under $2 per pill. Total is $6 per day, $12 per weekend. That is way better than a cialis. Still wish it was cheaper, but at least I can live with it. I'm too chicken to order from an out of country cheaper option.

If you're a military veteran, just stop at your VA Men's Health Clinic and get a prescription. They'll usually give you at least 4 pills per month, and you can order refills on-line via email / PM thru the VA Healthcare website.

The VA meds are usually less expensive, if not free, than what a civilian place charges.

[QUOTE=TenDawgs;2798849]If you decide that Viagra is the way to go, have your Dr write you a prescription for sildenafil (generic name for Viagra). Get a 30 count for 30 days. Take it to Sam's Club and buy a premium membership for $100 a year. Cost for 30 Viagra (sildenafil)? $10. $10 a month. I know, I did it today.[/QUOTE]Worked for me at Sam's Club! And I've refilled Rx several times at $10 cost.

I had an appt at my urologist today. Left with a script for Viagra. Came home and called BC / BS to see if it was covered. Nope. For the hell of it I called Walmart to ask how much it was? She said it would be $1,092.00 for 20-100's! My jaw hit the floor. That's $54.60 per. WTF!! Is there anybody that pays this price for it?

How the hell can they get away with this? Wasn't it supposed to go generic?

The girl on the phone suggested I go online and buy it from Canada.

That's out frickin rageous. Fuck You Big Pharma!!

$67.52 at blinkhealth. Com. NY Times article, you can google. You send your prescription to them and they send a voucher which you take to your local pharmacy. NYT says it works. I have not yet tried. Thinking of using it for different item as they have 1500 generics available.

[QUOTE=TurboDog;2952848]Worked for me at Sam's Club! And I've refilled Rx several times at $10 cost.[/QUOTE]Is that the prices Of your copay or is that the no insurance price?

One solution to the cost problem is to go to this website, sign up for the $200 card and ask your doctor to write you a script for Cialis 5 mg, 30 tabs and take 2 when you want. The first 30 are free with that sign up. I did this and got thirty 5 mg tabs at no cost one time (one time only).

Second is to use JCM pharmacy (India), no script needed and many ways to pay. I have used them as has my buddy, no problems, they are legit, they are easy to deal with and they deliver as promised. They have LOTS of choices for ED drugs, and Indian drugs are reliable as many of the Indian pharmaceutical manufacturers provide drugs to the USA and undergo FDA scrutiny and inspection.

Keep in mind, that even though Viagara is going generic, the first year, the generic price is about the same as the brand name price. Because the first generic manufacturer has "exclusive rights" for 6 months or so. That's the law. After that, you will see the price start to drop.

GG.

I get my viagra from the VA due to a slight stroke I had 8 years ago. I can order 12 100 milligram tablets every 3 months cut in half that's 24 times I can bang stiff as an 18 year old. If you have erection issues and are a veteran contact your local VA they might be able to help. I order mine and they are mailed to me my doctor just makes sure I'm good. HL29.

The times I have tried these pills, I haven't liked the side effects. Stuffy nose, bloating, etc. I have tried vitamin C, and vitamin Stax. Is there anyone here who had the same experience with them who liked another one better? I don't really *need* the vitamins to get stiff, but hey, a little help never hurt.

Had another appt with the Urologist to discuss my slightly elevated PSA results. When that was over I told him about the price for Brand V. He agreed it seems to be high priced and laid a business card on me for a Canadian drug supplier. (I checked it out when I got home and it's like $15/ per.) Thanks.

I then asked him about Revatio. "Revatio? What's that? How's that spelled?" Really? He's never heard of it. Can that be? I don't know if he's dicking me around or what.

On the way out he hands me 2 sample packs (2 in each box) of the new single dose Pfizer V's 100's. That more than makes up for his lack of knowledge of Revatio.

I left happy. He lives to see me another time.

Revatio is just another generic sildenafil (Viagra) like Kamagra, at 20 mg and your saying 15 per that's ultra expensive. I can do worlds better than that guys LMK.

If you are Costco member, 20 pills run $24.00, If you are not a member you can still use their pharmacy and the price for 20 pills is $28.00. That is for "sildenafil"! When I asked for "Revatio" the price was around $400! The pharmacist said if you should ask for sildenafil, not Revatio for the $24-$28 price option.

Sildenafil is available as a generic drug in the United States. As of 2016 branded pills cost about 50 times more than generic ones.

In the United States, Pfizer received two patents for sildenafil: one for its indication to treat cardiovascular disease (marketed as Revatio) and another for its indication to treat erectile dysfunction (marketed as Viagra). The substance is the same under both trade names.

In 1992, Pfizer filed a patent covering the substance sildenafil and its use to treat cardiovascular diseases. This would be marketed as Revatio. The patent was published in 1993 and expired in 2012. The patent on Revatio (indicated for pulmonary arterial hypertension rather than erectile dysfunction) expired in late 2012. Generic versions of this low-dose form of sildenafil have been available in the USA From a number of manufacturers, including Greenstone, Mylan, and Watson, since early 2013. Health care providers may prescribe generic sildenafil for erectile dysfunction. However, the generic is not available in the same dosages as branded Viagra, so using dosages typically required for treating ED requires patients to take multiple pills.

In 1994, Pfizer filed a patent covering the use of sildenafil to treat erectile dysfunction. This would be marketed as Viagra. This patent was published in 2002 and will expire in 2019. Teva sued to have the latter patent invalidated, but Pfizer prevailed in an August 2011 federal district court case. In an agreement with Pfizer, Teva will begin to provide the generic drug in 2017.

My doc prescribed me 90 20 mg for one month's supply. My health plan will not pay for the brand Viagra but will pay for the generic. My copay was $10 and my insurance paid $50. Like others have said I like the smaller sizes, easier to titrate your own dose to how hard you want to pound that day. LOL.

Go educate your doctors fellow mongers!
