Hello - Would anyone here have experience buying Eliquis from an online Canadian pharmacy (I am based in the USA). Looking for cheaper options, as with my current prescription plan it is about $313 for 180 tabs of 5mg. Any insight or other options are greatly appreciated. Thank you
Have you explored the manufacturers discount card?
I was at the ER with a blood clot a month ago, and Eliquis had a program that covered the first month at no charge to the patient. Of course then I needed to get two more months of it, and that cost me a whopping $600. It didn’t help that I hadn’t met my prescription deductible for the year because everything else I take is generic.
I looked at the manufacturer program, and I didn’t qualify due to being on Medicare. But if you are on private insurance it should be an option for you.

You can always try Coumadin – it’s cheap!!

Don’t know if GoodRx would defray the cost, but they cover a LOT of other prescription meds. Worth a try since it’s no cost or risk to you.
I think that the reason many people are now on Eliquis is because it doesn’t require the regular monitoring that Coumadin/Warfarin does.
(I’m on Warfarin and have been for over 24 years continuously. Yes, I get my INR tested monthly but I prefer that because I always know what is is and am also comforted by the fact that Warfarin is easily and quickly reversed if necessary.)
