More good news when it comes to employers managing prescription drug costs and employees saving money. Duexis manufacturing has been discontinued!
When employers are seeing renewal increases due to high prescription claims, this drug could partially be to blame. Duexis is, simply stated, a combination of famotidine (AKA Pepcid) & Ibuprofen primarily used to treat RA and Osteoarthritis patients.
The retail cost for Duexis is around $3,000!! That equates to approximately a 6600% increase from purchasing the famotidine and Ibuprofen separately.
At USI, we strive for transparency in drug costs for our clients and this is one drug we previously identified as a red flag. Contact me for more information on how I can help your employer save money with our innovative, proprietary, solutions. [email protected] / 864-901-2244
