CVS Introduces a Cheaper EpiPen Alternative Available Now
CVS announced today its generic version of EpiPen, which is available over the counter for $ 109.99 for a two-pack. It’s even cheaper than the other generic alternative , which costs $ 300 for a two-pack.
The CVS version is identical to Adrenaclick, FDA cleared and requires the same recipe. So, if you have a prescription for an EpiPen, you will want to ask your doctor for an Adrenaclick medication. They both work the same way, so there should be no problem. CVS also provides a coupon program for anyone who cannot afford the cost. Both Adrenaclick and EpiPen will continue to be available, although the CVS version is identical in every way to Adrenaclick, so there’s little reason to shell out extra money unless your doctor or insurance requires it.
