It's pricey (we give it at cost, which is about $70 - I've heard of private MDs charging up to $150.) But it has few side effects & is good for 10 years. Will your daughter be living in a dorm? That's who we highly recommend it to.

Yes, she will live on campus.
I made her an appt with our Dr. to have it, but I am glad to hear it lasts so long and has few side effects. They offered them at summer welcome for $100 and I probably should have gotten it for her there, but I didn't know alot about it so decided to go to our Dr. I appreciate the info. Thanks!!
