Greetings dear L/L land friends!
i just wanted to let those of you know who need subq fluid bags that I just was able to get the BBraun DEHP-free bags at Walgreens again. The last time I checked in July, they could only get the Hospira bags with DEHP. But I called Monday just to check again and they were able to order me a case of 12 for $78.00. This is substantially higher than the last time I bought them for Gus ($22.00) but much cheaper than what Costco quoted me for the Hospira bags ($8.00/bag).
Because the pharmacists at my Walgreens remembered me, they also remembered ordering the BBraun for me. I did give them the NDC code again and it popped up in their system that it was available. When they ordered it, they also put “NO SUBSTITUTIONS” and the next day, my case of DEHP-free BBraun bags arrived
The NDC code for the BBraun, DEHP-free LRS is: 0264-7750-00
You just have to be persistent with Walgreens and tell them you KNOW they are available for $78/case. The first time I ordered them through my Walgreens, it took some persistence but we got them. And the $78/case is the full price. If you have a Walgreens Family Saver card (or whatever they call it), it’s $72/case but the card is $20/year.
