Yes, I am. Sadly, in the US it happens all the time.
When I first started taking it 6 years ago, I paid less than $20 for 30 days. It has gone up to $90 at most retail outlets, I get it for $44 at Costco, but still a significant jump in 5 years. Without it, I can barely function. And with no prescription coverage, I can’t afford a huge jump in cost, which, with the law of supply & demand, is almost assured to happen.

It’s a generic … a lot of companies can make it if they choose to.
 
I have not had the generic form available in a few years. I get brand name Plaquenil.
I have already seen fluctuations due to demand, while I am happy a cure for Covid19 may have been found, it will have a profound impact on pricing and availability.

This article says to calm the excitement.

I read more articles from this website and some of their information is not on point … so I don’t know how much of this article I truly believe.

I will try to pray daily with you all that this works. I thought that there were two drugs that they were testing. Whatever the case I pray:
  1. For great success in the most dire of cases.
  2. That it safe for everyone who needs it to take.
  3. That enough is produced for everyone who needs it.
  4. That it is free to all covid19 patients and remains affordable for those who use it for other conditions.

The Memorare​

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.

Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.



Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

 
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

Hail Mary, full of grace. The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world. x10

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

I fully expect we will have evidence on it’s efficacy within the month, though maybe not yet to FDA approval standards. It may save many lives in off-label use. If a loved one is in ICU, demand it’s use.

In that vein, the University of Minnesota is organizing a trial to treat 1,500 people with hydroxychloroquine who were exposed to the virus from infected family members or as healthcare workers but are not yet ill. The study relied on laboratory experiments in China that found hydroxychloroquine inhibited the infection.

120%
At Costco. If I went to my local pharmacy it would be closer to 200%
That was the increase in cost for my hydrochlorequine from last month to this month. 😳:roll_eyes:😠
I am lucky, I can absorb this cost. It will be a dent in my “mad money” for each month, but some are not so lucky.
