Default Naltrexone prescribed!

Just to let you know I was able to get a prescription for LDN through one of my former doctors and it can be filled at my local CVS, because it is for the 50mg tablets. According to the pharmacist I spoke to at CVS this is getting to be a fairly common practice. Wow. (:

Edit: update, the prescription was sent not to CVS, but to the local compounding pharmacy, which screwed up my betahistine in the past, sigh. Since it is a compound it is not covered by insurance. The cost is $70 for a months supply, which to me is simply outrageous.

The cost per 50mg tab of naltrexone averages about $2.50. Taking 4.5mgs per day I would need approx. 3 tabs per month, at an approx cost of $7.50 per month.

Please share your thoughts. I am open to all suggestions. I hate to continue to get LDN online, but I may be financially forced into it, but at least now I have been prescribed it.
