Can Abilify Be Purchased Over The Counter?

default
Posted on Wed, 9 Nov 2016
Question: Our son's salary just went over $20,000 so now his Abilify is $700. instead of $1. Are they places in OR to have prorated medicine prescriptions? It is not technically a medical question. He just doesn't qualify for the clinic where he lives. Not sure if there is a solution.

Brief Answer:
I have a solution to suggest...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I don't know of such a place, but I can suggest another solution. Have a look at this: http://www.galinos.gr/web/drugs/main/drugs/abilify#content
This is a greek website for doctors, it has all the available forms of abilify in Greece and although the content is in Greek, you can identify the various forms of abilify and their prices. You can't order it through this website but perhaps you could order it from a drug store in Greece (internet search will help). The 10mg form (28 pills) costs 65 euros and the most expensive form (30mg x28 pills) costs 125 euros. So this is only a fraction of the cost in the USA. I'm sure you can find somewhere either in Greece or in Europe to place an order for a small cost, although you won't find a price comparable to $1!

I hope it helps!
Kind Regards!
