Good news! I found the last RX for Wellbutrin that my pdoc had written for me a couple of months ago. It was in a jacket pocket. He wrote a few RXs in advance when I was there the last time, getting me ready to be able to refill between my last appointment with insurance and the next appointment coming up, which is my first without insurance.
Took it to Sam's Club. (We don't have Costco, so this is the closest I can get to something like that.)
Learned something interesting. Apparently the girl who quoted me prices there a couple of months ago was wrong, or maybe prices for these things fluctuate. I don't know. In any case, it was quite a bit cheaper than I expected.
A 30-day supply of Wellbutrin 100 SR (100 mg twice per day) was just $50.
Here is the interesting part that I learned today.
With Sam's Club's business membership (which costs a little more than my membership), my RX would have been 40% off.
I think she said the business membership is $100 per year.
I didn't stop to do the math and figure out if I should get the other membership. I have a card on my mom's membership so I couldn't very well upgrade a membership that doesn't belong to me, and I don't have a spare $100 right now.
But it's good to know.
Now I've got to get this back into my system after being without it for a couple of days.
