About Etonogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Vaginal Ring and its cost

What is this medication? The etonogestrel and ethinyl estradiol vaginal ring is a hormonal contraceptive used primarily to prevent pregnancy. It is a flexible, transparent ring that is inserted into the vagina for three weeks, followed by a one-week break. This medication contains two types of female hormones, an estrogen and a progestin, which work together as a combined hormonal contraceptive method.

The medication works by releasing a steady dose of hormones into the bloodstream to inhibit ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovaries. Additionally, it causes changes in the cervical mucus and the lining of the uterus to make it more difficult for sperm to reach an egg and for a fertilized egg to attach to the womb. While it is highly effective at preventing pregnancy when used correctly, it does not provide protection against HIV or other sexually transmitted infections.

Etonogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Vaginal Ring is made by Organon. 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 Etonogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Vaginal Ring?

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 Etonogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Vaginal Ring?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Etonogestrel and Ethinyl Estradiol Vaginal Ring?

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 Pregnancy?

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.
