•Limits to anti-nausea pill coverage wear on cancer patients and doctors
81% Informative
Pharmacy benefit managers say limits guard against overuse and offer workarounds to get more tablets.
Ondansetron, known by the brand-name Zofran , is a relatively cheap anti-nausea pill.
Doctors say restrictions on the number of tablets patients receive can hurt care.
Thirty tablets of the drug can cost under $12 through prescription discount websites.
If patients run out of ondansetron, even for a few days , uncontrolled vomiting can send them to emergency rooms or force a treatment pause, doctors say.
Limits can hurt patients who have big copayments for each refill or trouble getting to the drugstore.
Murphy , the cancer patient, has avoided all of that.
