Hello,

I can't believe that I'm writing about something good at WalMart. Did you know that they have a prescription drug program that offers many common medications for $4/month or $10/90 days? Tamoxifen is on the list.

Except in the case where Tamoxifen has failed, AI's are just not that much better than Tamoxifen. If cyp2d6 is normal, they may not be any better at all. And look at the cost difference!

There is a disclaimer about existing prescription plans so I'm not sure if this applies if, for example, you already have a $25 copay for your meds. Is anyone taking advantage of this program, and if so - can you tell us how it's working for you?
