Did Generic Propecia Go Up in Price?
1 mg generic Finasteride (Dr. Reddy’s) has gone up in price significantly. Walmart now charges 62 dollars compared to back in April 2013 went it was 44 dollars for a 30 month supply. Walmart pharmacy claims that the distributor of Dr. Reddy has increased the price. I called around and prices at CVS and Walgreens have also increased. I am hoping that more generics will enter the market place driving the cost down, permanently.
I had a member of my staff call around a couple months ago for pricing, but I wasn’t aware of any increase lately. Give it some time and I am sure we will see the price come down early next year once there are more pharmaceutical companies making it.
It’s only $8 at Target for 30 day supply of 5mg finasteride. Get that & a pill splitter and you will basically have a 4 month supply at $2/month.
