Is Estradiol Or Estropipate An Alternative For Premarin 625?

I have been taking premarin .625 since I was 40 and have just turned 65. My cost will be much higher with my medicare prescription plan. I have found 2 lower cosr options but do not know what I should take, estradiol or estropipate. What is the appropriate dosage? I would like to be more informed when I approach my doctor.
