... Is there another medication that can be substituted or financial help for this drug?
I was started on Effexor XR in November, but I have no insurance and it is expensive and no money.?

Here is a link to the patient assistance program for this medication:
You can contact them and they will send you an application or you can print one out from the link on the side margin.

I do not know what State you live in but there is medical assistance for people who cannot afford insurance, or any kind of medical assistance. Get in touch with your Social Services program and they will direct you. No one should go without medical help in our very wealthy country! There is help but you have to look for it. Every State has a welfare program. I live in California and ours is Medi-Cal which pays all doctors, hospitals and prescriptions for those that are eligible. Please do the research on this and get help.

I will try to find a phone # for you, give me some time though.
Hi RG!
Hi again PnG,
Wyeth was purchased by Pfizer. My computer is not playing nicely with others so I could not get a phone number for you, yet if you type Pfizer into your search engine, you will find an option of 'contact us' on Pfizer's home page.
Best wishes, and I truly hope you are able to get your med at no or low cost!!
Hi Lara, hows the lady today? Have a nice week end! Take care, best wishes for the season!
I'm going well RG, how are you? What season is it where you live? Summer? I know I could google it, but prefer to hear it from you!
Lara
All's well Sweety, we also have the same seasons as yourself, midst of a severe winter up North where I live.
Take care, best wishes!
Lara taken the liberty of addressing you as Sweety... hope its ok? Friend...

Lara, just as an after thought are you an Aquarian? & Thanks Sweety... Rajive
Pfizercare or Pfizer Connection To Care (I think Wyeth handed it off ?)
has a FREE program for your needs. Just apply[gr8 phone support staff!] or OnLine(print forms), sign, have your Doc fiil in his/her little part, send it in , and, if you qualify, they will mail you 6(?) months of what you need, rinse, wash, repeat... ( they have many medicines available on the form). Also, your Doc will have LOTS of samples of EffXR possibly... mine did. When you withdraw, wear full hockey gear(goalie!) It is very, very, physically , mentally,
disorienting! EmpathyAboundsfor You. Best of Luck. Kev
'rinse, wash and repeat'? hilarious, thanks I needed a giggle!!
