About Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride Pediatric, Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride and its cost
What is this medication? Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride is a combination prescription medication used primarily for the prevention and treatment of malaria. This serious disease is caused by parasites that enter the body through the bite of an infected mosquito. For travelers, it serves as a prophylactic measure to be taken before, during, and after visiting regions where malaria is common. In a therapeutic context, it is used to treat acute, uncomplicated cases of malaria by eliminating the parasites living within the red blood cells.
The medication contains two active components that work in tandem to interfere with the metabolic processes and reproduction of the malaria parasite. The pediatric version is specifically formulated for use in infants and children, with the dosage carefully calculated based on the patient weight. To ensure maximum effectiveness and reduce the risk of stomach irritation, it is usually recommended that the tablets be taken at the same time each day with food or a milky beverage.

Common questions
What's the cheapest way to afford Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride Pediatric, Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride?
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 Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride Pediatric, Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride?
No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But GlaxoSmithKline has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.
Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride Pediatric, Atovaquone and Proguanil Hydrochloride?
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 Malaria?
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.
