There was another thread saying it’s in 30 packs of single use vials for $300. At that price, I predict they’ll stop making this in a few years.

You get $40 from a vision plan for an exam, you’re going to spend $10 plus shipping on a dilation reversal drop? Or maybe be you try to pass the cost on to the patient, charge them $20. Is that even allowed under a vision plan? Or Medicare?

Drugs have gotten so expensive, there’s almost no point to developing new ones anymore.

Yes, the drug unit price is insane even if you getting $60 for the exam.
