Is this new? When I checked a few months ago, the coupon was more like $30 off, bringing down to like $350

Edit: no, this is the same crap “max savings of $60” on a $400 drug

Ah. Gotcha. I realize how lucky we were that it was only $80/month with insurance. We were the lucky ones who got it down to $30/month with the coupon. I do not remember what insurance we had, and this was years ago as well.
