About NovoLog Mix 70/30 and its cost

What is this medication? NovoLog Mix 70/30 is a prescription insulin analog used to improve blood sugar control in adults with diabetes mellitus. This medication consists of two different types of insulin combined into a single injection: 70 percent insulin aspart protamine suspension and 30 percent insulin aspart injection. It is commonly prescribed for individuals who require both a rapid-acting insulin to manage glucose spikes after eating and an intermediate-acting insulin to maintain steady blood sugar levels throughout the day and night.

The dual-action formula works by replacing the insulin that the body normally produces, helping to move sugar from the blood into other body tissues where it is used for energy. By effectively managing glucose levels, this medication helps prevent long-term complications associated with diabetes, such as kidney damage, nerve problems, and vision loss. It is typically administered via subcutaneous injection shortly before a meal to ensure the fast-acting component can address the immediate rise in blood sugar caused by food intake.

NovoLog Mix 70/30 is made by Novo Nordisk. 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 NovoLog Mix 70/30?

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 NovoLog Mix 70/30?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover NovoLog Mix 70/30?

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 Diabetes?

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.
