I recently consult a psychiatrist ( 2nd time already) about anxiety and depression issue, the meds that he gave me works but too expensive. I not sure when i should stop taking them as the doc mentioned my condition need long time to deal with ( which probably all doc will say so because they dont want out of business). Any idea i can get those meds at pharmacy @ cheaper price? It is not i dont want to trust the doc, he indeed helped me and i did feel much more better now but from business point of view, of coz he would want me to continue take meds... what do you guys think?

lol so u trust him or not?

anyway psychiatric conditions have to be on meds long term one unless the doc say can stop. if u stop and then ur condition relapse it will be much much more worse. as for cheaper drugs, you can always request the doctor for a prescription so that u can get ur meds from pharmacy outside. It is your right as a patient.

why don't you visit your GP, and ask him whether he can order the medicine for you? if not, try government hospital

newer psychiatric meds are very expensive and not necessarily can get in government hospital
