Well, after a week of allergy treatments Brianna still had a yucky runny nose and a crackly cough so I had to take her back to the doctor. He said she had a sinus infection and fluid behind her ears although they were not actually infected yet. So we went to the pharmacy to get her some Augmentin. This morning while mixing up the medicine to administer her second dose I proceeded to spill HALF of it! Ughh!!!! So I called the pharmacy who directed me to call the pediatrician's office and told me that the insurance would most likely not pay for another prescription of Augmentin. I called the doctor's and told them what the pharmacy said and the nurse said they would call something in. I told her that cost did not matter to me, I just wanted Brianna to be healthy. So Bobby went to pick up the prescription and text me the cost: $73.59!!! Oh my goodness! I was shocked because the receipt on yesterday's prescription said the insurance paid $25 and we paid $10. The pharmacy said that our insurance office was closed and that we should call them tomorrow so they could try to get an over-ride. A very expensive lesson learned!
Edited to add: The pharmacy got a hold of our insurance and we were able to get an over-ride for the prescription so we only ended up paying $13.00! Yeah!!
