Question 1

How can I get Eliquis cheaper?

Accepted Answer

If you have commercial insurance, apply for the Bristol-Myers Squibb Eliquis copay card, which can reduce your cost to as low as $10/month. Medicare patients should apply for the Eliquis Patient Assistance Program through NeedyMeds or RxAssist. International pharmacies like PharmacyChecker-verified Canadian pharmacies can also save 70–94% on Eliquis.

Question 2

How can I get Xarelto cheaper?

Accepted Answer

Xarelto (rivaroxaban) has a manufacturer copay card for commercially insured patients that can reduce costs to $10/month. Medicare patients can use the Xarelto Patient Assistance Program. GoodRx and SingleCare discount cards can also reduce costs at US pharmacies.

Question 3

What is a manufacturer copay card?

Accepted Answer

A manufacturer copay card (also called a savings card or copay assistance card) is a program offered by drug manufacturers to help commercially insured patients pay less out-of-pocket. They typically reduce your copay to $10–$35/month. Important: these cards do NOT work for Medicare or Medicaid patients.

Question 4

Can Medicare patients use GoodRx?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Medicare patients can use GoodRx discount cards at pharmacies, but you cannot use GoodRx and Medicare Part D at the same time for the same prescription. GoodRx is most useful for Medicare patients when the GoodRx price is lower than their Part D copay, or for drugs not covered by their plan.

Question 5

What is a Patient Assistance Program (PAP)?

Accepted Answer

Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) are manufacturer-sponsored programs that provide free or heavily discounted medications to patients who cannot afford them, typically based on income. NeedyMeds.org and RxAssist.org maintain comprehensive databases of PAPs for most brand-name drugs.

Question 6

Is it legal to buy medication from a Canadian pharmacy?

Accepted Answer

Technically, importing prescription drugs from Canada is not FDA-approved for individuals, but the FDA has a policy of generally not pursuing enforcement for personal-use quantities (typically a 90-day supply). Many Americans safely purchase medications from CIPA-certified Canadian pharmacies. Use PharmacyChecker.com to verify any international pharmacy before purchasing.

Question 7

How much can I save on Entresto?

Accepted Answer

Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan) can cost $600–$700/month retail in the US. With the Novartis copay card, commercially insured patients may pay as little as $10/month. Medicare patients can apply for the Novartis Patient Assistance Program. International pharmacies typically offer Entresto for 70–90% less than US retail prices.
