Hi all how much did you pay for in regards to the liquid diet to shrink your liver with the optifast before the surgery.

I had to do two weeks of Optifast. I think it was about $250.00 if I recall correctly.

Now that was a year ago so I'm not sure what the cost is now.

I have to do two weeks of Optifast as well, and t cost me $175.00. I ordered it right after I met with the surgeon at UH in London on Dec 3 and it was delivered the next day.

I?m currently on optifast and I?m paying $63(and change) per week. That?s through st Joes in Hamilton.

Edit* Im on it for 3 weeks and the pharmacy allows you to by week by week so you don't need to buy it all at once.

Hi. I just got my surgery date on Friday and I had to order the Optifast. I'm out of Toronto Western. It was $87.50 per week.
