Kickas.org Forums Treatments, Drugs and Alternatives AS Pharmacy Prices of medicines

I ask some help...

I live in Cuba, and some friends and family wants to help me with my medicines.
I have Reactive Arthritis since I was 14th (now 28th) but here in Cuba only have access to Indometacin, later my friends and family began to send me Sodium Diclofenac (Voltaren) and is ok with me.

As this medicines are a gift I'm very very worry about they prices, now another family wants to sent me Cellebrex.

Please, I need to know at least the price (not need to be exact) of these two:

Voltaren or Arthrotec
Cellebrex

I have some parsons who wants to send me Voltaren from spain, then I want to know the prices in both places, USA and Spain to cause the less damage that I can.

thanks anyway

SAMUEL

samuel,

dont know the exact prices, but i can say with confidence that celebrex is the most expensive nsaid, no matter what country you are in.

Agreed Ken - although my Vioxx comes out slightly higher than my old Celebrex Rx.

Cheers,
Jeanna

Live simply. Give more. Expect less.

Hi Samuel,
I just talked to a pharmacy here in Washington state in the USA.
This was the difference in prices they gave me for those two meds.

Celebrex:
60 pills of 100mg $91.99 (US)
60 pills of 200mg $162.99 (US)

Voltaren (Diclofenac)
60 pills of 75mg (generic) $57.45 (US)
60 pills of 75mg (brand name) $145.99 (US)

Hope this helps a little

thanks all of you very much.
is evident that diclofenac is sheaper than cellebrex or vioxx, and i thing in spain is a little sheaper than in US.

thanks again
