Title: Cafergot
Post by Axis on Oct 14^th, 2002, 1:59pm

Ok everyone I need some info,
#1. Do you or did you use Cafergot ?
#2. Did it work ?
#3. Are you unable to find it now ?
#4. Do you pay for it or have Insur ?

I am looking to see how many people here will order it if I can get a store to place an order for it.

Each store has told me they have to order a $1000.00 worth at a time and they dont sell enough to do this.
So I'm hopeing that maybe there are enough of us here that need it and that we can all order from the same place.
Please post if this is something you can do.
Thank you,
Rod.

Yes, I use it. No, I can't get it from my usual source (Wallgreen's in San Francisco) But there is a pharmacy here which compunds it. My insurance covers the Wallgreens supply, but not the other. If you want I'll send you their address and phone.

I'm a pharmacist in Oklahoma City, and we received a
bottle of 100 Cafergot today no problem. Also got a bottle on July 30th. Forget the big chains- call an
independent pharmacy - they tend to care a little more-
(we use McKesson drug as a wholesaler). Also - if you go
to a place that compounds it, even though they can't
bill your insurance, they should at least be able to
produce a computer generated form that you yourself
can mail to your ins. co. for reimbursement. Good luck

Hi, I've just been prescribed Cafergot, and just wanted some information on how its helped others. What exactly has it done for you? I take it that it works well at least for some people going by the posts.
