About OXAZEPAM and its cost

What is this medication? Oxazepam belongs to a class of drugs known as benzodiazepines. It is primarily used to treat anxiety disorders and to provide short-term relief from the symptoms of anxiety. This medication works by affecting certain chemicals in the brain that may be unbalanced in people with anxiety, specifically by enhancing the effects of a natural chemical called gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA. This process helps to produce a calming effect on the central nervous system to reduce tension and agitation.

In addition to treating general anxiety, oxazepam is frequently prescribed to manage symptoms of acute alcohol withdrawal, such as tremors and irritability. It may also be used to address anxiety that is associated with depression. Because it has the potential to be habit-forming, it is typically intended for short-term use and should be taken exactly as directed by a healthcare provider. Patients are generally advised to avoid alcohol and consult their doctor about potential side effects or interactions with other medications while using this drug.

OXAZEPAM is made by Sun. 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 OXAZEPAM?

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 OXAZEPAM?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover OXAZEPAM?

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 Agitation?

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.
