[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 260965, member: 1233"] Sounds like a good plan. I like having the prn as well as the daily medication. It gives you a lot more ability to meet changing needs. The fluoxetine is prozac and you can get a 90 day supply for $10 at the Walmart pharmacy, or a one month supply for $4. The propranolol is priced the same, I am pretty sure. Sadly, pataday is the "latest and greatest" allergy eye drop and that IS the price for a teeny bottle of it. The docs all like to rx it because it is what the reps are pushing. There are a lot of other eye drops out there though, so you may not want to stay with this one. husband and the boys all get terrible allergy eyes, but they respond well to some of the OTC allergy eye drops. There is one WalMart carries in a house brand, opcon A or something similar that has worked as well as the more expensive rx drops. I would call the eye doctor about other alternatives or else the prescription assistance program if you don't have coverage for prescriptions. While our eye doctor RAVES about pataday, she says that it really is only a little bit better than opcon a drops. It just gets raved about because it seems to help that very small % of the population that doesn't respond to other allergy medications. I really hope the prozac and inderal (propran) work. I find the inderal to be an itneresting choice as it is a blood pressure medication (beta blocker) and is used to prevent migraines. But it does sort of take the edge off if you are highly wound and have not taken it often. You do adjust to the sedating property with-in a few weeks, so it may be less effective and need to be reviewed at that time. I hope he feels better soon! [/QUOTE]
