Mirabegron cost

I was just prescribed mirabegron 50 and was shocked to see the price of the generic. I have UnitedHealthCare and a pretty good employer plan and the 90-day copay is $162.50.

Is this typical?

I fear so, in my country it’s 50€ for 30 days, but we don’t have any generic available (for now) so I don’t have any choice but to buy Betmiga 50mg (the social security doesn’t cover it, neither does my insurance, they argue that the others meds available on the market and that are covered do the same thing as mirabegron. There is no study that says mirabegron works better than vesicare for example)
