Be careful with the choice between and injection or infusion or an oral medication. The injection/infusion is paid by Medicare Part B, where your supplement has a maximum annual out-of-pocket limit. Oral medications are paid by Medicare Part D prescription drug plan which has no maximum annual limit!

Do the arithmetic before you make a quick and uninformed choice!
