About Aurovela Fe 1/20 and its cost

What is this medication? Aurovela Fe 1/20 is a combined oral contraceptive medication primarily used to prevent pregnancy. It contains two types of female hormones, which are ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone acetate. The 1/20 designation refers to the specific strength of these hormones contained in each active tablet. This formulation also includes ferrous fumarate tablets, which are iron supplements intended for use during the final week of the pill cycle to help maintain iron levels while a person is experiencing their monthly period.

This medication works by preventing ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovaries during the menstrual cycle. Additionally, it changes the consistency of cervical mucus and the lining of the uterus to make it harder for sperm to reach an egg or for a fertilized egg to attach. Beyond its primary role as a birth control pill, healthcare providers may also prescribe it to treat moderate acne, regulate menstrual cycles, or reduce the severity of menstrual cramps and blood loss.

Aurovela Fe 1/20 is made by a pharmaceutical manufacturer. 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 Aurovela Fe 1/20?

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 Aurovela Fe 1/20?

No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But the manufacturer has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Aurovela Fe 1/20?

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 Birth Control?

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.
