I just received the list of meds I will be using for my next IVF and I am trying to get a general idea how much things are going to cost. I have a spreadsheet from my first IVF in April but at that time I was using Luveris. I assume since Menopur contains FSH it's even more expensive. Can someone give me a rough idea of the cost for a vial of Menopur? Thank you.

Re: Cost of Menopur
Now we're waiting on our miracle baby ... a little GIRL!!!
I got 14 vials and it was $1,700.
I used two vials/day.
TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs
Thanks everyone! This definitely helps.
Any chance any of you are cycling at a SIRM center? I just got my calender and the med lineup is so different then my previoius ivf cycle. If I could I'd like to PM you with some questions on their EPP/Antagonist protocol.

Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy and The Apothecary Shop both participate in the heart program (I believe that is the correct name). Anyhow, you pay $10 and then during that year you get Menopur (and a couple of other drugs) at a discounted price. For my September cycle, it cost me $10 + $71/vial at Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy. It would have been $10 + $68/vial at the Apothecary Shop.
Good luck!

We've always bought our fertility meds ( in our case, Lepori, the generic for Repronex/Menopur) at www.ivfmeds.com. They're located in the UK and shipping takes 10-12 days. Here's their price list...
https://secure.ivfmeds.com/store/index.cfm
They charge $ 38.75 per 75 UI vial of Menopur
Mine would have been $70 per 75 IU vial. I was lucky and had them donated. Make sure to check out P/SAIF to see if anyone has any to donate.
