Comment:
Way too expensive! My co-pay was $40, which is ridiculous. The bottle is extremely difficult to maneuver and use. Drops landed on my face wasting my hard-earned money! They burned very badly so I was told to discontinue because I am probably allergic. That resulted in $40 down the drain!

Comment:
This drug has been disappointing. My Anthem Blue Cross co-pay for this tiny bottle was $50 after meeting a $200 deductible. The first drop did not come out. When trying again more than 2 drops came out. Because of this, I ran short by 1 drop prior to surgery. I cannot recommend AzaSite.
