    Talk to your pharmacist about a program that Astra Zeneca (sp)has for people who cannot afford maintenance drugs. They are supposed to be pretty good about helping out patients. I think you need to meet certain financial requirements. Good luck. Marilynn

    Hi, I have been on Arimidex for 2 years. Haven't got to the hole yet so i guess i am lucky. The first prescription in a new year though gets me as i have to pay a large deductible. when i first went on it i went into the arimidex web site and they have programs that maybe you would qualify for to help with your cost. Check it out. I tried them all but didn't qualify. good Luck. Betty
