Hi everyone. I see this thread is from 2010 and I'm just curious if Cayston was ever added to the Medicare formulary now almost 2 years later? Is there anyone out there that is solely on Medicare who gets Cayston (and has it covered by Medicare)?

No, unfortunately, it hasn't been added yet....very frustrating! It has been added to my part D insurance, but since it is a brand and no generics are available, it would cost me a fortune that I can't afford...Been trying to get Cayston since FDA approval. It is probably the one drug that will do so much good as TOBI is no longer an option for me as my PA is resistant to it.
