Hi all,
Looking for any recommendations/experiences of Pregnyl vs. the generic form from Fresenius Kabi USA LLC.

My cost would be $115 for Pregnyl 10,000 IU
vs about $35 for the generic. Thanks!

A few members on here have been using the generic.

If money is an issue than I would give the generic a go!

Howdy! Sharing a post I made in another thread. I still need blood work done to verify, but anecdotally I feel as good on the FK generic as I did on pregnyl, which is better than I’ve felt on any other generic.
I recently switched pharmacies due to cost - for whatever reason, my local Rite Aid is able to get Pregnyl at a significantly cheaper price than Costco, about $107 a vial after a GoodRX coupon (it's up to $267 at Costco as of the time of this writing!). However, nobody has been able to get Pregnyl recently - I called Rite Aid, Costco, Safeway, Fred Meyer, and Walgreens, all had it on indefinite backorder.

However, Rite Aid was able to get me a generic made by Fresenius Kabi at a price of $199 for two 10mL vials. It's only been a couple weeks, but my body seems to respond to this just as well as Pregnyl - far better than I remember responding to anything I got from Reliable. I wonder if this has anything to do with the fact that Fresenius bought Merck's biosimilars portfolio a few years back.

Anyway, @MDavidW76, I am just down here in Oregon, so if you're geographically nearby in Washington you may give that a try.
