Spain: EU, and what it actually costs here
Been lurking in c/meta for about 18 months and finally have something worth posting.
Short version: week 33, 15mg, and reimbursement is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 17 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.
What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 27.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Mechanistically the bit that matters is reimbursement. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
Sceptical. If this were true we would see it reflected in the data and we do not.
Australia here. Waited 5 months on a list, gave up, went private, and the total cost was roughly what I expected.
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
the 17-country variation is the whole point

Adding to this: prescription is doing more work than the comment implies.
Strongly agree. Pricing is local.
private and public prescription routes differ
Australia here. Waited 8 months on a list, gave up, went private, and the total cost was roughly what I expected.

Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with EMA, not with what you concluded.
pharmacy stock varies by country and season
This is correct. Tag your country.
Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
Week 32 for me and the honest summary is: 32kg down, nausea manageable, and I have thought about food maybe four times today.
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
