Cost of Lomustine (CeeNU)?

Question by Hilla B (is a Momma!): Cost of Lomustine (CeeNU)?
Does anyone have a dog on the chemotherapy drug Lomustine? If so, about how much does this drug cost? My vet is suggesting it as a treatment of a non-cancerous (but equally terminal) growth in my 2 year old pup’s brain and before my husband and I commit to treatment (as oppose to euthanasia), we would like to get a better idea of cost. We have a tele-conference with the neurologist tomorrow but I’m impatient and eager to talk to anyone who has had experience with this drug long or short term. Thank you!

Hi there…prices for chemo drugs vary from pharmacy-to-pharmacy as well as from veterinary clinics even within the same region. Some of the drugs can be more affordable if purchased from your local pharmacy. In all honesty, it is so difficult to provide you a specific figure, however through experience I’ve discovered there are many variables which plays a role in affecting the cost of medications.

I hope your dog does well on the medication and lives a full and happy life.
