About DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL and its cost

What is this medication?

Dehydrated alcohol is a highly concentrated form of ethanol, containing at least 98 percent ethyl alcohol by volume. It is primarily used as a prescription injection to perform therapeutic neurolysis, which involves the intentional destruction of nerve tissue. This procedure is typically reserved for patients suffering from severe, chronic pain that does not respond to other treatments, such as pain associated with advanced cancer or specific types of neuralgia. By interrupting the transmission of pain signals along the nerves, it provides long-term relief for individuals in debilitating conditions.

DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL is made by Belcher. 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 DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL?

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 DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover DEHYDRATED ALCOHOL?

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 Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy?

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.
