About LEVOFLOXACIN and its cost

What is this medication? Levofloxacin is a prescription antibiotic that belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of medications. It is used to treat various types of bacterial infections by inhibiting the ability of bacteria to repair and replicate their DNA, which eventually kills the organisms. Doctors often prescribe this drug for respiratory issues such as pneumonia, acute sinus infections, and flare-ups of chronic bronchitis. It is also an effective treatment for certain urinary tract infections, kidney infections, and bacterial infections of the skin or prostate. Beyond these common uses, levofloxacin is sometimes used to treat or prevent serious conditions like the plague or anthrax exposure. It is crucial to remember that this medication only treats bacterial infections and is not effective against viral infections such as the common cold or influenza. Patients should follow their healthcare provider's instructions carefully and complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve, as stopping early can lead to the return of the infection or the development of antibiotic resistance.

LEVOFLOXACIN is made by Janssen. 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 LEVOFLOXACIN?

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 LEVOFLOXACIN?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover LEVOFLOXACIN?

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 Chronic Bronchitis?

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.
