Thanks for the reply! I guess I am out of options and have to switch to TDF.
This is very frustrating…I can’t use the newest and safest medication, which is invented and produced in USA, since it’s not covered by insurance and $1500 cash price. Meanwhile, my friend in China only pay $50 cash price or $20 with insurance for Vemlidy.
if anyone knows a doctor who is willing to send an exception letter. Please let me know. I’m considering switching to a new doctor.
My doctor refused to send the exception letter. She said the bone density issue will be the same for both TDF and TAF. She said there potential side effect of kidney damage of TDF but she will keep monitoring it.
