My insurance sent me a letter last month and said they would not cover Aciphex (generic) after March first. I didn't really know what I was going to do and thought about
trying to get it though Canada. Just for the heck of it I did a search online to see if there was any discount programs out there and I found one and when I entered the info I got a list of pharmacies and prices that were close to home. I printed out the coupon and took it to Walgreens and they honored it. It went from $306.00 to $38.55. Just got home from the Walgreens a few minutes ago and I wanted to share this so it would help someone else.
If a moderator will give me permission I would LOVE to share the website so people can get there discount coupon.

nofun,
Is Aciphex (generic) a PPI? Do you know how it compares to Nexium? I get the Nexium generic (esomeprazole, 40mg) from the UK, but it doesn't provide any relief so I'm looking for something different.

Yes Aciphex is a PPI. Maybe the Nexium stopped working for you and it's time to switch. For now the Aciphex is working good for me. Sometimes if I have a breakthrough I'll take a Zantac.
