About Hailey 24 Fe and its cost
What is this medication? Hailey 24 Fe is a combined oral contraceptive pill used primarily to prevent pregnancy. It contains a combination of two hormones, an estrogen known as ethinyl estradiol and a progestin called norethindrone acetate. These hormones work together to stop the release of an egg from the ovaries during the menstrual cycle. Additionally, the medication causes changes in the cervical mucus and the lining of the uterus, which makes it more difficult for sperm to reach an egg and for a fertilized egg to attach to the womb.
The name of the medication indicates its specific dosing schedule, which features 24 active hormonal pills followed by 4 inactive pills that contain ferrous fumarate, a form of iron. The inclusion of iron tablets helps users stay on track with their daily medication while providing supplemental iron during their monthly cycle. Aside from its primary use as birth control, Hailey 24 Fe may also be used to help regulate menstrual cycles, decrease blood loss, and reduce the pain associated with menstrual cramps.
Hailey 24 Fe is made by Glenmark. 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 Hailey 24 Fe?
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 Hailey 24 Fe?
No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Glenmark has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.
Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Hailey 24 Fe?
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 Birth Control?
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.
