Re: Talk to me about pharmacies

  • I used Target for Clomid and Ovidrel. I used a local specialty pharmacy for my inject cycles. So I guess I'm not much help. I have researched Freedom Fertility though; they seem to have pretty good prices.

  • My RE's ofice does the research for the best prices on injectable meds for me, and they've always ordered mine through Freedom Fertility.

  • I use WalMart for Clomid $9 for 5 pills

    I use Walgreens Specality based in Texas for my Follistim-$254 for 300IU (double/triple for 600/900).

    I use a Walgreens by my house for Ovidrel-$92.20

    I used Freedom Fertility for my Ovidrel once and they were $95.  Although I think someone said after you order the first time it is closer to maybe $50.

    There is one company based overseas, IVFmeds.com, maybe and I know a few people said they had issues getting meds through customs.  However, others have used them and had no issues.

  • I haven't gotten much in the way of meds yet, but...

    Clomid can be had anywhere that has a $4 generic list for the $9. Target, Walmart, etc.

    My RE ordered my trigger from Barron Pharmacy. It's fairly local to here, but I'm sure they can ship anywhere. HCG trigger was $64 including shipping (supposedly 2 day shipping, but I received it next day).

    I order my HcG from Barron's too. They ship super fast and they were about $30 cheaper than Walgreens.

  • My RE uses Metro Drug Pharmacy.  I compared their prices with Freedom Fertility and they were a little less.  Shipping was free and they were easy to deal with.

    After more than 2 years of fertility treatments, FET did the trick!

  • I use Villiage Pharmacy.  It works out great for me because they are actually based out of a town just 15 min away from me.  The ship overnight, or I can go pick them up myself.
