About OHM-FLU and its cost

What is this medication? Oseltamivir Phosphate is an antiviral medication used to treat the symptoms of the influenza virus, often referred to as the flu. It is designed to inhibit the spread of the virus throughout the body, which helps to reduce the total amount of time a person is sick and can decrease the severity of symptoms like aches, fever, and congestion. This medication is most effective when a patient begins taking it within forty-eight hours of the onset of symptoms. Beyond treating active infections, this medication is also used for the prevention of the flu in people who have been exposed to the virus. Doctors may prescribe it for individuals who have been in close contact with someone who has the flu to help stop them from getting sick themselves. However, it should not be viewed as a substitute for an annual flu shot, as it does not provide the same long-term protection as a vaccine.

OHM-FLU is made by a pharmaceutical manufacturer. 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 OHM-FLU?

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 OHM-FLU?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover OHM-FLU?

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 Influenza?

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.
