I'm starting cortifoam and I think my doctor screwed up and only ordered one box. How many boxes is a month's supply? I'll have to call the office back to have them correct this I think.

I think one box is supposed to last 2 weeks. I used to get them to write the script for am & pm and 2 puffs, then I could get 4 boxes for one copay. My copay for that was $50. Way too expensive. I am thankful to be done with all of that.

Yes they said it was a 10 day supply for twice a day but I found it lasted for way less than that
Thankfully I had some from the hospital when I was discharged so I had enough
Really it's only enough for about a week
I had to pay over 300 but thankfully I already met my out of pocket maximum (200000 in hospital fees will do that)

1 canister (box) only lasts me a week. Get the doctor to write the script for 4 boxes per month.
