After more digging, they were attempting to send me 15 vials. I don't need fifteen, but they require a ninety days supply, and the way my doctor wrote the prescription, it'dr fifteen.
I just finally gave up. I told my doctor to send the prescription for ONE vial to a local Fred Meyer. It likely won't be covered by insurance, since it's not going through CVS but $200 is still more affordable than $600. I'll worry about where that money will come from tomorrow.
