Getting Eye Drops For half Price

[bountyhunter]

If you have allergic eyes, you probably know about Zaditor. My doc says they are the best, they do work well. I used to get two 10mL bottles on scrip through Kaiser for $5 until Zaditor went OTC, and then Kaiser doesn't cover it. Same (2X) 10 mL amount went up to 50 BUCKS.

I looked all over the net but the best Zaditor price around was $12 for 5mL. Since I go through a bottle every three weeks to a month, that's more than pocket change in a year.

Then I noticed bausch and Lomb made Alaway drops which had the same ingredients, cost about $12/bottle. Looked like the same price until I did the "English to metric" conversion and found out Alaway gives you the full 10 mL for $12 and Zaditor only gives you 5 mL for $12.

BTW: you can get a freebie bottle of Alaway from Bausch and Lomb just by filling out their form at their home site.

I remember my doc put me on Patanol a long time ago, and he mentioned the outrageous price kaiser was getting gouged for it by the manufacturer. Unfortunately, I don't do well with steroid eye drops because it gave me migraines. Don't know why, but I went from having a couple of migraines a month to having five a week and the visual effects were so severe they were terrifying. So, patanol is no go for me.
