No prescription needed
You may not need a prescription for this.
sodium chloride is also sold over the counter — 46 non-prescription products contain the same active ingredient. Store brands at supermarkets, discount stores and dollar stores are usually the cheapest way to buy it, and no pharmacy visit is required.
Same active ingredient does not mean same product. Prescription strengths are often higher than what is sold on a shelf, so confirm with your pharmacist or prescriber that the shelf version matches what you were prescribed before switching.
Cheaper form
The tablet form of this drug costs 323.2× less.
Measured per gram of sodium chloride, the solution works out at $22.33 against $0.07 for the tablet. Liquids cost more to make, ship and store, and that shows up in what you pay.
Whether a tablet would work for you is a question for your prescriber or pharmacist — it depends on the dose and on whether swallowing one is manageable. Worth asking, because they may not know the price difference either.
This is not medical advice, just a price comparison. Do not crush, split or dissolve any medication unless a pharmacist has told you that yours is safe to take that way.

Telepharmacy
In much of the country a pharmacist can verify and counsel remotely while the prescription is filled at a licensed hub. It carries far less overhead than a counter, and where it is available the cash price can undercut one.
We are not showing any yet — we have no verified telepharmacy price to put here, and an indicative one would be worth less than nothing. It is the next source we are adding.
