Re: How much do you pay?

$35 with insurance for Mircette. If I used the generic it would be $15.

I work in a pharmacy and get an employee discount. I take Kariva (Mircette) and with my discount I pay $24.00 a pack. "Bordergirl", you should try Kariva and save yourself some money! Trust me, they are exactly like Mircette..only cheaper!

I took mircette for a couple years when my college gave it out for 8/pack for the brand name. I noticed absolutely no difference when switching to kariva.

Re: How much do you pay?

Actually I'm really glad to hear that! The reason I've stuck to brand name is because when I took Desogen (same maker as Mircette) my period was 2 days but when I took the generic Apri (same maker as Kariva) it was 5 days. So I guess I will give Kariva a try next month!

Thats strange how the Apri was different than the Desogen for you.
