I wanted to pass along some info that might be helpful in saving some
money to a lot of us on the list. I have been having a hard time
finding Diazoxide (Proglycem) that is anywhere near affordable.
Thanks to my vet's help, I found a place in New Hampshire that
compounded it to his specifications and sent it directly to me. It was
ordered on Wednesday and by mid-day Friday it was here (in
Connecticut). This pharmacy was extremely easy to work with and called
me to confirm everything and get my credit card info. They have a
website also. The bottom line is that I had been paying over $100 for
a month's supply of Diazoxide, and I got it from them for $45, freshly
compounded, plus $5 shipping. This was for 60 ml, 15 mg/ml,
flavored. I don't know the rules about 'advertising' a place like
this on this list, so I will just say that if you email me privately I
will be more than happy to give you their website and phone number. I
would think it's at least worth an inquiry, particularly for shelters
that may be able to save even more by buying a larger amount.

[Moderator's Note: If you look in the FHL website Files section we have a list of compounding pharmacies recommended by members. We have had an experience similar to yours with one in NJ and I suspect others are also as good. That is one reason we keep such a list for many nations.

If the one you are using is not in the list, PLEASE, notify moderator, Pam Sessoms (address is right on that resource) so that it can be added.]
