Re: Shoreline

Hey Scotty, Hope your doing well.
Imprint Code: 315 / ETH
Drug/Strength/Manufacturer: Oxycodone Hydrochloride 5mg - Roxicodone - Ethex
Description: Partially Scored - Beveled Edge - Orange/Rust - Tablet

YOu may want to shop around to ensure your getting the best prrice. I've only seen prices go down at Sam's club but they do it quite often
120 soma was costing me 44 bucks last month which was 20-60 dollars less then the three big retail pahrmacies, TheI was talking ro the pharmacist after havin to get mny roxicodone 30mg pills filled at another store because they are closed on sundays. I found a mom and pop that had the ethics logo on the front window and although I had been saving 80 bucks at sams on Roxi 30mg by paying 119 dollars I found the same med , same manufacturer, Amide at the ethics store for 89 dollars, I had them quote me 120 soma and it was 24 dolars there.

I called my regular pharmacist at Sams to ask if they price matched and she ask whitch drugs, I told her the price of soma and she said that was on her price reduction list, I picked 120 soma for 16 dollars and some change, Their new proce won the roxi was 93 dollars but she said she would match the 89 at the ethics store.

All the years using the big name pharmacies, Revco, CVS, Walgreens, Rite aid and Eckeerds have cost me thousands of dollars by not beeing informed and shopping around. The walgreens across the street is not going to tell you that the same med, the same dose, the same quantity, the same manufacturer could be obtained for 1/3 to 1/4 the price by walking across the street to Sams, Walmart, Costco or an Ethics mom and pop store.

Check your mom and pop stores if your payng cash. They will even pick up my script and deliver my meds the next day. Talk about customer service. Sams is still more conveinant and at the same price so I will stick with em, but I will still shop prices from time to time to be sure I'm getting the best I can.I remeber paying 60-80 bucks for the same Soma just a year and 1/2 a ago.
Take care, Dave

Check out the adds at the top of the page for online soma, Just $113 for 90 pills on the internet, I got 120 for $16 bucks at Sams.

Re: Shoreline

Thanks dave,i never heard of Ethex.
i use a mom and pop pharmacy very close to home.they know me by name and i have health ins through my wifes job.my copay for roxi is only $10 although for ambien or elavil(not sure which one or both) i pay $50

the only down side is they close by 9pm but i always save an extra days worth of meds for that reason,it just makes me nervous to fill my pain meds after i take my last pill on hand.

im still on SA meds but my doc agreed to increase to 5 a day and its been alot better since.i am sleeping through the night for the first time in months.im tired of being awake at 3 am wathing infomercials or girls gone wild promos on late night tv.

im going to be trying some trigger point inj in a few weeks.i dont expect much but the dr said it may help with the constant knots or spasms in my lower back.we'll see

do you think ethex is a more reputable generic then the endo?
thaks for the info,take care scotty

Re: Shoreline

Hey scotty, I never had or heard of a problem with Ethex and have taken this brand before. You see this brand in the older mom and pops when Pharmacist opened their own stores and made marketing and adv. agreements to use the quality brand Ethex logo on their signage and in the windows, mainly used by independents. The Mom and pop also had an old time soda fountain and sandwhich bar. Like stepping back in time.LOL
I wouldn't worry.
Take care, Dave
