Lack of Information
You may be truthful in your statements. However, you should understand that a considerable amount of what people post on the internet is incorrect, misleading, or just dishonest. Without further details your story about a price increase to $179 from $6.30 is not credible. I imagine there is much more to the story. It sounds like your deductible had been covered in December and now in January you have started paying down your deductible. Have you called your insurance company and discussed the issue with them?
Have you discussed it with your doctor? I have found in recent years that doctors have become much more aware of the costs of drugs they are prescribing and can be very helpful in finding low cost alternatives whether in different drugs or in creative ways of prescribing them.
Have you researched the cost of the drug on the internet?
