I read a few posts and it totally suks that the pill is really expensive, but in all honesty, if that's the only prescription you have to pay for, then you're lucky.

One box of my insulin costs $138.00 the other box costs me $72.00...each box only lasts me 2 weeks. Not to mention my sloob testing strips are $80 a box and that lasts me for a month and my needles are another $30 dollars a box and those will last a month, plus other stupid diabetes supplies...oh, and my employer just terminated my benefits.

I know women like their method of birth control, but if it's really that expensive and you can't afford it, there are cheaper methods of birth control (granted, some of them may be less effective). I apprecaite your frustration, and I think it's wrong that birth control pills are so expensive, but there are many people out there who are spending way more money of prescription drugs that actually need them to live.

I apologize for my little rant, but I think it's more of a crime when I'm spending $roughly around $500 a month on prescription drugs that I need live.
