My husband and I are both on Creston 10 MG. We can save 0 a year if our doc would prescribe 20 MG and we could split the pill. Doc won’t agree to this, said we lose proper dosage. Don’t understand as our insurance company sent us authorized letter to give to physician for this purpose. (One of the top Rated Hospital in Country) What can I do to persuade the doc as I don’t want to change doctoros now. Only have till end of year to get in on the deal.
Note: Crestor is not spelled correctly in details.

The deal is that he would have written one of you a prescription for twice the proper dose of this medication. If something Crestor-related happened to the person he wrote the scrip for, it screams lawsuit.
I know it’s not what you want to hear, but you’re basically asking him to commit fraud.
He should my doctor does on a couple of prescriptions because of cost. Tell him why you want this and if he still refuses try another Doctor.
for your information drs get about $9,000 per year for promoting the medicine we take, they get trips, incentivies, ect
another reason he wants you to keep on coming back to the office for refills, he’ll be loosign 1 payment for the drs visit if one medicine cure you both,
remember drs are not the way they use to be, now is a very lucrative business.
whenever posible ..go the healthy way,
