About LEQEMBI, LECANEMAB AUTOINJECTOR and its cost

LEQEMBI is a prescription medication specifically designed for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease in adults. It is intended for patients who are in the early stages of the disease, such as those with mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia. The primary function of this drug is to target and reduce the accumulation of amyloid beta plaques in the brain, which are protein clusters believed to play a significant role in the progression of the condition. By reducing these plaques, the medication aims to slow the decline in cognitive and daily functioning. This monoclonal antibody therapy is administered via intravenous (IV) infusion. It works by identifying and binding to specific forms of amyloid beta to help the body clear them from brain tissue. Before starting the medication, healthcare providers must confirm the presence of amyloid plaques through diagnostic testing. This treatment is part of a therapeutic class focused on modifying the underlying biological processes of Alzheimer's rather than just managing symptoms temporarily.

LEQEMBI, LECANEMAB AUTOINJECTOR is made by Eisai. 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 LEQEMBI, LECANEMAB AUTOINJECTOR?

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 LEQEMBI, LECANEMAB AUTOINJECTOR?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover LEQEMBI, LECANEMAB AUTOINJECTOR?

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 Alzheimer's Disease?

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.
