About Amlodipine besylate and Olmesartran medoxomil and its cost
What is this medication?
Amlodipine besylate and olmesartan medoxomil is a combination prescription medication used primarily to treat high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. It contains two different types of blood pressure medications that work together in distinct ways to help relax the blood vessels. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that prevents calcium from entering the walls of the heart and blood vessels, while olmesartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that prevents a specific hormone from narrowing the blood vessels. By keeping the vessels open and relaxed, the medication helps the heart pump blood more easily and reduces the overall pressure within the circulatory system.
Amlodipine besylate and Olmesartran medoxomil is made by Daiichi Sankyo. Like most brand-name drugs, it's priced at a high list price — but patients rarely pay that list price. The options above are the real paths most people use to get it affordably.
Common questions
What's the cheapest way to afford Amlodipine besylate and Olmesartran medoxomil?
It depends on your insurance. On Medicare, apply for the manufacturer's Patient Assistance Program (PAP) — it gives the drug free if you meet income requirements. With private insurance, the manufacturer copay card usually drops your copay to $0-$25. Uninsured patients should compare the PAP with Cost Plus Drugs cash price.
Can I use a copay card with Medicare for Amlodipine besylate and Olmesartran medoxomil?
No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Daiichi Sankyo has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.
Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Amlodipine besylate and Olmesartran medoxomil?
Part D coverage varies by plan. We query the CMS Prescription Drug Plan file to show you what percentage of plans cover it and at what tier. For your exact copay, pick "Medicare" above and check your plan's Summary of Benefits, or log in to Medicare.gov.
How long does a Patient Assistance Program take?
Most PAPs take 2-6 weeks from application to first fill. Ask the manufacturer about a "bridge supply" — many will ship 30 days free while your application is being reviewed so you don't go without the drug.
What if I have a high-deductible plan?
For generics, Cost Plus Drugs cash price is often cheaper than your deductible-phase copay. For brand names, the manufacturer copay card almost always wins. A GoodRx coupon can be a last resort for uncovered drugs, but it doesn't count toward your deductible.
Are there charity grants for Hypertension?
Charities like HealthWell Foundation, PAN Foundation, Good Days, and the National Organization for Rare Disorders provide copay help for specific conditions. Funds often run out mid-year — apply early. We list the specific grants for your condition in the options above.
