Share to:

excuse me?


The Hepatitis Prevention and Treatment Foundation will publish the price of Belac 200 NT dollars.
Could you please tell me which pharmacy in the Taipei area sells it at this price (or lower)? I'm running out of money to buy my medication.
Please, I beg you.

Dr. Liao Lingmei reply Pharmacology


Dear Jeremy: This medication is not covered by health insurance and must be prescribed by a physician.
Even though some pharmacies may offer prices, it is not advisable for you to purchase it on your own, as taking it after a physician's diagnosis and assessment ensures your safety.
Wishing you health and happiness.

Finding affordable medications, such as Belac 200, can be a challenge, especially when you're on a tight budget. In Taipei, there are several strategies you can employ to locate this medication at a reasonable price.

1. Local Pharmacies: Start by visiting local pharmacies in your area. Chain pharmacies like Watsons or Cosmed often have competitive pricing. Additionally, independent pharmacies may offer lower prices or discounts, so it’s worth checking multiple locations.

2. Hospital Pharmacies: If you have access to a hospital, their pharmacy may offer medications at a lower price compared to retail pharmacies. Hospitals often have programs to assist patients in obtaining necessary medications at a reduced cost.

3. Online Pharmacies: Websites like PChome or Momo may have competitive prices for medications. Make sure to check if they require a prescription for Belac 200, as some medications may not be available without one.

4. Discount Programs: Some pharmacies offer discount programs or loyalty cards that can help reduce the cost of medications. Inquire at your local pharmacy if they have such programs.

5. Community Health Centers: These centers often provide medications at a lower cost for individuals who are uninsured or underinsured. Check if there are any community health centers in your area that can assist you.

6. Patient Assistance Programs: Some pharmaceutical companies have patient assistance programs that provide medications for free or at a reduced cost to those who qualify. Check if the manufacturer of Belac 200 offers such a program.

7. Social Media and Community Groups: Sometimes, local community groups on platforms like Facebook or LINE can provide leads on where to find medications at lower prices. You can ask for recommendations from others who may have faced similar challenges.

8. Contacting the Manufacturer: If you are having trouble finding Belac 200 at an affordable price, consider reaching out to the manufacturer directly. They may have information on where to purchase their products at a lower cost or may offer assistance programs.

9. Comparative Shopping: Use apps or websites that allow you to compare prices across different pharmacies. This can save you time and ensure you are getting the best deal available.

10. Consult with Your Doctor: If you are struggling to afford your medication, talk to your healthcare provider. They may be able to prescribe a generic version or an alternative medication that is more affordable.

In summary, there are various avenues to explore when searching for affordable medications in Taipei. By checking local pharmacies, hospital pharmacies, online options, and community resources, you can increase your chances of finding Belac 200 at a price that fits your budget.
