I hope your insurance does it differently than mine does. My Dr wrote mine out for a 100mg pill and 25mg pills. That means I would have had to pay 2 different copays. Be careful what you wish for. Two different kinds of pills are two different prescriptions with two different copays depending on your insurance. I told the pharmacy that was stupid and I was not going to pay $70 a month for ONE prescription. They changed it to all 25mg pills so I could spend half the cost and just take more pills. Convenience is more expensive, depending on how your insurance views it. I told them I would take 50 pills a day if it saved me half the $ per month! :) Check it out before you make the switch to the bigger pills. Dr may have done that on purpose to keep you from having to pay two separate copays for the same drug. Wish mine had thought of that! DUR! :)
