[quote=Anonymous]I got a tier/formulary exception for Wegovy. It brought the cost down to Tier 2 price, which is about $160 dollars a month. My doctor had to file a request for one, but I prepared it for her and she just signed it and sent it in. I am unable to take the other drugs on the formulary that are cheaper (most are/include stimulants, which I cannot take due to a medical condition I have, and the non-stimulant drug on there can interact with one of my other medications). You will want to look up every cheaper drug on the formulary and see if it is contraindicated for you for any reason. I almost didn't bother with the tier/formulary exception request because I figured they would just make me take Orlistat, but when I looked up Orlistat I saw that it interacts problematically with a drug I already take. Good luck. You can't just get a tier exception, your doctor has to argue that you can't take any of the other drugs that are on the formulary and cheaper. [/quote]
