Coverage and prior authorization
Prescription topical anti-inflammatories and patches are often rejected or need a prior authorization, and plans may prefer an oral generic first. We check your plan, tell your sports medicine office what it needs, and tell you the cash price so you can decide.
Questions
Is a prescription topical anti-inflammatory different from one I can buy over the counter?
Sometimes the strength or form differs. We can compare the prescription and over-the-counter options, including price, and share them with your prescriber.
Can I take an anti-inflammatory every day for an injury?
Only as your prescriber directs. Long-term use can affect the stomach, kidneys and heart, and our pharmacists can review your other medications for interactions.
