Re: Cost of Tykerb and Xeloda
I recently came off of Xeloda and Tykerb, didn't work as my mets in my lungs progressed. As a Canadian in Ontario, the Xeloda is paid for under our provincial health care,but the Tykerb is not. The cost was $2800. every three weeks. My private insurance covered this for the 2 and 1/2months I was on it. Initially I was good for one year, then out of pocket. Some of our other provinces cover it, but not Ontario........still under revue.
I'm now on my second treatment of Naveline.
