About ENTYVIO, ENTYVIO Pen, Entyvio and its cost

What is this medication? Entyvio is a prescription biologic medication used to treat adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. These conditions are chronic inflammatory bowel diseases that can cause symptoms such as persistent diarrhea, abdominal pain, and rectal bleeding. This medication is often prescribed when other treatments, such as corticosteroids or immunomodulators, have not worked well enough or were not tolerated by the patient.

The drug works by blocking specific white blood cells from entering the gastrointestinal tract, which helps to reduce the inflammation responsible for bowel damage and symptoms. It is administered either through an intravenous infusion in a clinical setting or via a subcutaneous injection using the Entyvio Pen. Healthcare providers typically begin treatment with infusions before some patients transition to using the pen for maintenance therapy at home.

ENTYVIO, ENTYVIO Pen, Entyvio is made by Takeda. 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 ENTYVIO, ENTYVIO Pen, Entyvio?

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 ENTYVIO, ENTYVIO Pen, Entyvio?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover ENTYVIO, ENTYVIO Pen, Entyvio?

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 Ulcerative Colitis?

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.
