I have been having some kind of pain in my ear for about 2 weeks now, i went to the hospital last week and i was prescribed this drug Augmentin, i was shocked when i went to the pharmacy and was told it costs 57k, i even had to ask the lady if she knew what she was saying, i had to google it and found out she wasn’t lying. I went to buy it today.. it has just 14 tablets. A friend of mine told me it used to cost about 6k in the past.

If any Doctor is telling you to buy Augmentin 625mg, tell him you cant afford it that you would prefer an alternative. There is an intrinsic chain of trust in the drug distribution network. All na amoxicil and clavulanic acid

On the contrary....... It works by stopping bacteria from multiplying and dividing, thereby killing them in the process. When taken according to instructions, Augmentin has been known to successfully treat various STDs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and more........

And this is why the outcry is massive(it's the abx of choice, for many) ...... Their comfort blanket, is now more expensive......😁🤣

True, but still doesn't make it the drug of first choice for all the STD's you listed. Augmentin is a combination of Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. Clavulanic acid, a beta-lactamase inhibitor, prevents bacteria from destroying amoxicillin due to resistance.

Augmentin is most often prescribed to treat bacterial infections such as sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, ear infections, laryngitis, skin infections.

My rebuke to him though was how he concluded that a broad spectrum antibiotic that could have been prescribed for most bacteria infections was certainly prescribed only for an STD for the OP

Augmetin has never been cheaper than 6,000 Naira. Its not a mistake.

Bro, that is not correct. Because I bought it for 4,600 Naira last year, April to be precise.

The opposite will happen actually.

You think if the average nigerian spends 57k on this drug he'd want to finish it?

He'd use half and save the other half for another time.

To God who made you and I, the last time I bought this Augmentin 625mg was in August/September, 2020 - just three years ago and I bought at N3,500 at that time. Then sometime in August this year 2023, I wanted to buy it again and I was told by the many Pharmacies I went that the price was N25,000. And now it is N57,000. May God help us because there is absolutely no hope in this country. We are finished.

THAT'S 100% TRUE MY NIGGA,

I WAS PLACED ON AUGMENTINE IN 2017, I REMEMBER BUYING IT AT N5,500, FAST FORWARD TO OCTOBER THIS YEAR 2023, I HAD AN HEALTH ISSUES AND WENT TO SEE THE DOCTOR AND WAS RECOMMENDED TO GET AUGMENTINE, I WENT TO DIFFERENT PHARMACIES FOR THE DRUGS AND WAS TOLD THE DRUGS COST N32K, I GOT DIFFERENT PRICE RANGES FROM DIFFERENT PHARMACIES. I CAME BACK DISAPPOINTED BEACUSE I HAD BUDGETED ABOUT N12K FOR IT, THINKING THAT NO MATTER HOW WORST THINGS MIGHT BE, AUGMENTINE WONT BE MORETHAN N12K, "NO BE MAN TELL ME", WHEN I GOT TIRED OF WALKING AROUND LOOKING FOR N12K AUGMNTINE, I HAD TO BEG ONE OF THE PHARMACIST TO KINDLY RECOMMEND ANOTHER ACTIVE SUBSITITUTE TO THIS AUGMENTINE, WHICH SHE GAVE ME ONE OTHER DRUG "ANTI BIOTIC".

I TOOK IT AND PRAY THAT IT SHOULD WORK FOR ME, "MAKE I NO COME BECAUSE OF HIGH COST GO AGAINST DOCTOR'S RECOMMENDATION".

HONESTLY MY PEOPLE, THIS PERIOD IS THE WORST PERIOD FOR ANY ONE TO BE SICK IN NIGERIA. ONE OF MY LITTLE BOY GOT ILL LATE THIS YEAR, AND WE WERE REFERED TO A UNIVERSITY TEACHING HOSPITAL FOR JUST FOR THE FIVE (5) DAYS WE SPENT THERE, BEFORE YOU SAY JACK, I HAVE SPENT OVER N320,000. THANK GOD FOR THE PROVISION OF THE MONEY, THE WAY THINGS WORK IN TEACHING HOSPITAL IS LIKE THIS, THEY WILL BE LOADING YOU WITH DRUG PRESCRIPTION, DIFFERENT TEST TO RUN, YOU ARE EXPECTED TO BE RUNNING UP AND DOWN GETTING EVERY DRUGS YOU WERE ASKED TO GET, YOU ARE EXPECTED AS A MATTER OF URGENCY TO GET THEM, AND ONCE YOU DONT HAVE MONEY TO GO FOR DRUGS AND TEST, THEY WILL JUST ABANDONE YOUR CASE THERE. AFTER ALL, IS NOT THEIR FALT NOT THAT THEY DIDN'T ATTEND TO YOU, THEY DID, BUT YOU ARE NOT MEETING UP TO COMMITMENT THE DRUGS AND TEST THEY ASKED YOU TO GET.

YOU WILL SEE SOME PEOPLE DYING JUST BEACUSE THEY CANT AFFORD THEIR DRUGS AND AFFORD THE RECOMMENDED TEST .

I SAY AGAIN, THAT THIS IS THE WORST TIME FOR ANY ONE TO GET SICK IN NIGERIA. EAT ALOT OF VEGETABLE, DRINK ALOT OF WATER, EXERCISE ALOT, DONT GET OVER THINKING BECAUSE OF THIS CURRENT HARDSHIP, EITHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT, THIS HARDSHIP HAS COME TO STAY, AND IT WILL KEEP GETTING WORST EVERY DAY, I KNOW YOU WILL REBUKE ME AS AN OVER RELIGIOUS FELLOW, BUT I CARELESS.

Why was branded Augmentin prescribed. They're equally good generic amoxicillin/clavulanic acid products that costs far less that N57k & other alternative antibiotics that are far cheaper can equally do the job. A lot of people are dying because they can't afford treatments for their ailments. The government should create an enabling environment for drug production in the country.
