oh! just for FYI for those in the US who deal with the retarded 3rd party payer system. The drug company, Shire, offers a 50% savings on all co-pays for a year. I mailed them for a coupon before my psych appointment because I did my research and wanted to ask for Vyvance. I had also printed a coupon for Focalin XR (my second choice). This was a huge deal to me with co-pays of $150 (I actually have insurance!). Plus, even though I paid $75, the full $150 went towards my prescription deductible (which is an expensive crappy $500). Once I meet the $500 deductible, it is a preferred tier two drug with BCBS and it will cost $35 copay…and with the coupon only about $17 a month.
