When the drug was available from the previous company, I was able to use it for 2 yers with their patient assistance program. It was effective for me as it seemed to dissolve some of the visceral fat surrounding my upper abdomen. When the new distributor took over, they abolished the patient assistance program. It is not covered by my State (Iowa)'s medicaid program and is priced extremely high. I now suffer from fat loss in my butt and feet, allowing my bones to directly hit the seat or floor. Waling and sitting is painful. My abdomen continues to steal my other body fat. I wish that I could begin using this drug again as there is no other effective treatment available. Read More Read Less
