Title: Cheapest Place to buy imitrex
Post by Canes93 on Jan 7th, 2012 at 8:52am
I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to get Cheap imitrex injection.  Or a least cheaper, then Walgreens.  Im episodic and need to get through the next three weeks.  Thanks

Have you got oxygen?  I prefer it over the triptans.

I shopped around our local pharmacies and couldn't find any price breaks. That being said, I'm with Potter. Oxygen has all but eliminated my use of imitrex. I still keep stat doses on hand just in case I get creamed, but my stash of trex is gettin pretty old!

Like everything else it seems, nothing works for 100% of CH'ers. But used correctly, oxygen is prety danged close.

I'm with potter and Joe regarding the oxygen, but as far as finding the cheapest place to buy Imitrex..Costco has all of them beat.  The pharmacy there is open to all so you don't have to have an expensive card to use there.

Greetings,

The cheapest I was able to get them were the samples from my Doctor.

It is always worth asking.

Blessings to us all,

Might compare Costco with Canadian sources. Do avoid buying from any source from Mexico south or from Asia.

Costco is great for prices!  They also have a program to help out those that don't have insurance.  Some paperwork to fill out but worth it from what I read.

I 100% DISagree!  Mexico pharmacies offer Imigran injections for the statdose and nasal sprays which are very inexpensive compared to anywhere in the USA and the quality from Glaxo is just the same.

The issue with S. American and Asian sources is that studies have revealed high levels of counterfeit meds. Packaging is often flawless (but not the contents).

The last study I saw out of Asia: about 40% of meds were counterfeit.

That very well maybe true. 

But your statement included Mexico.  So in defense, i've never had quality issues over the many years of my travels to Mexico to buy Imitrex, and they offer the least expensive pricing of anywhere in USA or Canada.

Bob is VERY correct regarding Mexican and Asian counterfeits.  Buyer beware.
