About Losartan potassium Tablets, 100 mg and its cost
What is this medication? Losartan potassium tablets, 100 mg, are a prescription medication categorized as an angiotensin II receptor blocker. This medication is primarily used to treat high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, in adults and children who are at least six years old. By lowering blood pressure, it helps prevent serious health complications such as heart attacks and kidney problems. The 100 mg strength is often prescribed to help the blood vessels relax and widen, which allows blood to flow more easily throughout the body and reduces the workload on the heart. In addition to managing hypertension, losartan is used to lower the risk of stroke in patients who have both high blood pressure and a condition called left ventricular hypertrophy, which is a thickening of the heart muscle. It is also commonly prescribed to treat kidney disease, or nephropathy, in people with type 2 diabetes who have a history of hypertension. By protecting the kidneys, the medication helps slow the progression of renal damage over time. Patients should follow their doctor's instructions closely and should not stop taking the medication without professional medical advice.
Losartan potassium Tablets, 100 mg is made by Organon. 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 Losartan potassium Tablets, 100 mg?
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 Losartan potassium Tablets, 100 mg?
No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Organon has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.
Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Losartan potassium Tablets, 100 mg?
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 Hypertension?
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.
