Since I am now on Medicare, Xifaxin is not covered. As we all know, the price is not one most of us can pay. My concierge doctor hooked me up with Israel Pharmacy. I just ordered, for the 2nd time, 56 doses of 550 strength. The price? One hundred seventy-two dollars. I have used up the first 56 and I see no difference from the stuff I got from insurance. The name in Israel is Hepazek. The pharmacy is prompt and professional. I am now ordering another med from them that saves me about 250.00 a year over what I would pay with insurance.

Thanks for the info.
i have never been able to secure it when i had private insurance and the Medicare drug copay is insane.
thankfully, 14 days of Bactrim successfully treats SIBO when it occurs.
I have been on antibiotics for 20 years now. Originally, it was just Cipro, but now I rotate Cipro, Augmentin and Xifaxan. The latter has always worked best for me. Once I retired and saw how much I would have to pay, I kinda flipped. I can afford $175.00.
Another place you can get this at is at the Canadian Pharmacy. It seems to be even cheaper on there. https://www.truecanadapharmacy.com/drug/xifaxan
Now this one is not on there, but another good site is Mark Cuban drugs. If you need to use Mesalamine, this is the place to go. You can get 30 for $31 including shipping. https://costplusdrugs.com/
