I take a super expensive migraine medication called Frova ( that's the brand name for Frovatriptan), it's in the triptan family like Zomig and Imitrex but it's newer. Anyways, it costs about $77 for four pills and that's with a discount club card (not insurance). I was wondering if anyone could please check if they even have that drug and how much it costs in Seoul. Any help you can give me would be great. Thanks.

I'm in the States now but I'll be in Korea this coming Tuesday.

I don't know anything about your medication, but I can tell you mine is signifcantly cheaper, even without insurance. Health insurance here is now mandatory so if your employer isn't providing you with it, then they are probably up to no good.

In the US without insurance my medication is about $300, in Korea without insurance it's $142. With insurance it's about $42.
