My new insurance company only covers alprazolam for 93.00/mo. the only drug they cover in this family is dilantin at 45.00/mo. I have researched the following drugs and the insurance co. does not cover any of these either. atarax, ativan, compazine, klonapin, librium, trileptal, valium, diazepam, lorazepam. does anyone have any suggestions so I can talk to my doctor about this before december 6th? I appreciate any help anyone can provide for me. thank you.

Based on the drugs you have mentioned, do you have a seizure disorder? You have mentioned several drugs that are in different families so I am having a difficult time understnading what the primary diagnosis is. If you could add what the primary problem is by hitting comment below, might be able to make a better suggestion of what to inquire about.

I use it for anxiety and tension. I have no seizure disorder at all. I get anxious before dental appointments, things like that. I can take it up to twice a day, but only take it as needed. I appreciate you taking the time to answer me. On the website Drugs.com I put in alprazolam and the drugs I mentioned came up. That's the only reason I put in all the other drug names. Thanks again
ok, just wondered since dilantin is a seizure med. My insurance company won't cover benzodiazepines like alprazolam, ativan, klonopin, etc., either. You might want to call around to different pharmacies to get prices though. I pay around 25$ for 60 klonopin a month. The only other antianxiety med I can think of that the insurance is likely to cover is hydroxyzine. It is actually an antihistamine which is also prescribed for anxiety.
