About Fluticasone Furoate Ellipta and its cost

What is this medication? Fluticasone furoate is an inhaled corticosteroid used for the long-term management of respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, also known as COPD. It works by decreasing swelling and irritation in the airways, which helps make breathing easier over time. This medication is typically delivered through a dry powder inhaler device called the Ellipta, which provides a pre-measured dose of the medicine with each inhalation.

It is important to understand that this medication is intended for daily use to prevent symptoms rather than to treat sudden attacks of breathlessness. It is not a rescue inhaler and should not be used to treat an acute asthma attack or a sudden flare-up of COPD. Regular use as directed by a healthcare provider is necessary for the medication to be effective in controlling chronic lung symptoms and improving overall lung function.

Fluticasone Furoate Ellipta is made by GlaxoSmithKline. 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 Fluticasone Furoate Ellipta?

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 Fluticasone Furoate Ellipta?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Fluticasone Furoate Ellipta?

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 Asthma?

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.
