I think it'd help my mother in law a lot, but it's pretty expensive.
Any place to find SAM-e for a reasonable price?

This article on the subject of SAMe and its relatives looks to be worth reading before you start:
http://www.alternati...shQZ.htm&e=9888
Beyond A Century sells it for $19 for 30 tabs, but unfortunately they don't say how many mg per tab. Assuming it's 200mg it's the cheapest I've seen.

If you're thinking about saving money by buying in resonable quantities, you could try these chemical companies direct:

Actually, if you search for "sam-e" on Google there are quite a few sponsored ads offering SAMe quite cheaply.

Are you considering SAMe for its effects on Arthritis or Depression?I think it'd help my mother in law a lot, but it's pretty expensive.
I think, doctors can prescribe SAMe and other supps, I've never done this, so I don't know if insurance covers any of the costs, but its worth looking into.
For retail, I've seen websites on froogle offering bulk deals
e.g http://www.herbalglo...aging_3413.html
150 tabs
400 mg
$60.00
=$0.40 / tab
This is the best price I've seen for the high quality "foil packed" and "enteric coated" tablets. But there are lots of sites out there, so there likely are lower prices out there, and I can't vouch for the website.

Quality is a huge issue with SAMe...be careful.
