Does anyone know why Midrin is so expensive right now?

[November Girl]

I'm actually at a point where Midrin helps my headaches, so I decided to get a new script. Even with a coupon it would have been $191 for 45 pills. Ouch! I was expecting maybe $40. I may turn to an online pharmacy.

They say expensive drugs in general are getting more expensive. I don’t think there's a good reason.

Try the drug maker directly. If it's a brand drug, the company will often supply (at no cost or with a low copay) if that's the only way you can get appropriate meds, sometimes to anyone and sometimes to hardship cases.

Wonder if it has to do with what is talked about in this article?:

Actually I think it does. I've found that only one company in the world makes it right now, so they can charge what they like. I suspect that many companies stopped making this because most formularies wouldn't cover it.
