I know basic medications are cheaper in DR, but I'm concerned about my eye drops for my Glaucoma. I use 4 different drops at the moment, Timolol, Briminidine, Latanaprost and Rohpressa. Anyone else out there have Glaucoma?

Glaucoma Eye drops
Actually some Eyedrops are extremely Expensive in the DR. Lastacaft for example costs about 6 x more in the DR than via amazon in the US.
Timolol 25 Day supply on amazon 8.30 $US, Brimonidine 25 Day Supply 7.55 $US, Latanaprost 25 Day Supply 12.80 $US. There is no f.... way you get them cheaper here. Only the last one one your list is even on amazon very expensive (320$). This one you might get cheaper here. Write to GBC Farmacy on whatsapp and ask for this or a generic version Generic Name: Netarsudil ophthalmic solution 0.02% (829) 761-8212.

I would never buy locally produced eye drops here ..I agree with AE that it is best to bring them with you. The good news is there are some excellent eye doctors in the DR .
sure, buy online at amazon. this items do not have any weight so using a forwarder costs you closed to nothing. Exept of the last item on the list: F... the Insurance ! who needs this headache to save 20$ a month !?
Normally Insurance allows a 90 day supply.
The doctor would probably need to specify 90 day supply for mail orders.
You should heck again with your Insurance company (Specify 90 day supply and have the doctor write the prescription as needed).
Which Insurance company do you have?
Latanoprost has to be refrigerated, can’t ship that one without dry ice and a styrofoam cooler.
They have padded aluminum pouches now that work for days. Of course it might get to Miami quick but then......
