However, hydrocodone/acetaminophen (Vicodin [5/500]) failed to provide clinically or statistically superior pain relief compared to codeine/acetaminophen (Tylenol#3 [30/300]).. Adverse events, mainly drowsiness, dizziness, and nausea, were not clinically or statistically different between the groups, the authors note.
In Texas, the prices ranged from around $400 to more than $5,000; hereâs a list of prices for the removal of sperm ducts (CPT code 55250) in Texas; hereâs a list of prices for the no-needle no-scalpel vasectomy (CPT code 55450) in Texas.
Thatâs where our #PriceCheck collaboration comes in. I called several urological specialists in the Los Angeles area and asked about the cost of a vasectomy. Turns out, it pays to ask: Dr. Barton Wachs, of Atlantic Urology Medical Group in Long Beach, told me he charges $500, and he accepts insurance. That covers the consultation and the procedure. He performs the no-scalpel vasectomy. Meanwhile, Westside Urological Group in Santa Monica charges $1,100 for the no-scalpel procedure â plus $275 for the consultation. Keep in mind: That's the cash price, as the office does not take insurance.
