Default The Generic Lipitor costs MORE than Lipitor!
I went down to CVS to pick up my first prescription of "generic" Lipitor yesterday. My Lipitor prescription was $113.86. The generic version of 'Atorvastatin" for the same dose etc was $124.97!!!! Remember the article in the Villages Sun about how much we were going to save on Generic Lipitor??? CVS filled the more expensive generic! I asked the pharmacist about it and he pretty much gave me the blank stare (frankly I don't think he could believe it either). What is going on here?
