Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yes please, My mother is to take Mephyton and medicare says they do not cover it, its over $700. and my Father cannot afford another expense. Is there a generic pill made I see phytonadione is a gereric term used but do they make a pill that medicare/ bluecross will approve. please, thank you.
Thanks for contacting HCM. Mephyton is vitamin K. This is found over the counter and should not be that expensive. I would recommend that you talk to your pharmacist to help you find an OTC Vitamin K that would be comparable to her current Mephyton.
Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again with your health care questions and concerns
