Sheryl sent a message to John C. Lechleiter - Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eli Lilly and Company - Email Address that said:
This is Sheryl. You don t know me from atom. But it never hurts to ask; and life is very complicated, so why make it more difficult?
Sixty-four year old. Been on name brand Prozac for last twenty-seven years. Insurance now has a five thousand dollar deductible versus copay. Tried generic Prozac. Generic Prozac is simply not the same as name brand Prozac. Price per month with my CignA Insurance is unaffordable at $1,941.00. Yes 3 times 40mg x thirty days is $1,941.00 (one thousand and nine hundred and forty-one dollars for one month prescription). How can you please help me with this enormous price, please ?
Your company has made a lot of money from a customer who has been using Prozac for twenty-seven years. I pray you will consider helping me with this problem. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Very truly yours,
Sheryl
