About Flurbiprofen Sodium and its cost

What is this medication? Flurbiprofen sodium is a prescription medication belonging to the class of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs. It is primarily used as an ophthalmic solution, administered as drops directly into the eye. This medication works by inhibiting the production of certain natural chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, pain, and swelling.

The most frequent use for this medication is during eye surgery, such as cataract procedures, to prevent the pupil from constricting. By maintaining the dilation of the pupil, it allows the surgeon to perform the operation more effectively. Additionally, flurbiprofen sodium is used to manage and reduce inflammation and discomfort in the eye following surgical procedures or during the treatment of certain ocular conditions.

Flurbiprofen Sodium is made by Allergan. 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 Flurbiprofen Sodium?

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 Flurbiprofen Sodium?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Flurbiprofen Sodium?

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 Miosis?

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.
