My doc informed me about a cheaper option for Tadalifil (cialis) from a compounding pharmacy that is significantly cheaper than the name brand or even generic from the regular name brand pharmacy. he told me it’s not as good as he real deal but almost as good. Comes in little dissolvable tablets.
have any of you gents had any experience with anything like this if so was it good or bad? I imagine it would come close to the real deal or my doc would not present it to me. It is from Univirstiy compounding pharmacy

My fractional dose Anastrozole comes from a compounding pharmacy. It can crash my estradiol just as well as the 1 mg tabs can. I get it from Empower.

IMHO medication is medication as long as it contains the same active ingredients. Granted, there could be some inactive ingredients added to increase the effectiveness of name brand vs generic, but I can't say that I have ever seen a major difference throughout the years. In my own experience, 9 times out of 10, my insurance will only cover generic if it is available. Till now, generic drugs have managed to cure just about every illness that I had.

I am guessing it’s a troche. If so yes it’s good and hell of a lot cheaper. If it’s a dissolving tab skip it. Tried them and they’re worthless at any price.

edit: sorry, read closer and you said dissolving tab. Ask for the troche.

Will do, I mean I can get regular cialis for pretty cheap too the compound pharmacy would save me about $50 over the course of 90 days so not drastically

Regular cialis for me got ridiculous ($2.75/mg) now I get the troches through my clinic for 66 cents/mg. I've found the absorption to be not as good (15 mg of the troche is equal to about 10mg of regular cialis), but it's more cost effective for me. For $50 savings the cost savings may not be there for you, but give it a try. 50 bucks is still 50 bucks.

Very true $50 could get me 10ml of some fun

Damn went to re fill my cialis script and it went up to $138 for 15 5mg cialis. Pharmacy said insurance only covers 15 every two months wth! Not as expensive as I’ve heard some guys have had to pay
