> About the price of Xyrem. It really does anger me about how somehow the government and pharm companies got a choke-hold on a natural nutriend. A suppliment that was sold at health food stores now has the same government scheduling as herion. Because of this hysteria what I could have gotten for a couple dolars a month I now have to pay over $700 a month! Luckly my insurance covers most of the cost (for now) but I'm now in jepordy of losing my health coverage. That's a pretty scary thought alone. I could go on and on but I don't think Dr. Bob would care much for that.

>$700!!!!!!! That is an outrage! I just went to google bulk gammahydroxybutirate/butyric acid.....there used to be some sites in India and China that had price quotes.....but they're blocked or something. Not one site comes up now. If I recall correctly, it used to be about $300 for a 55 gallon drum. Even if it had to be distilled and extracted for human consumption, there is a lot of profit being made on this Xyrem.
