About PHYTONADIONE and its cost

What is this medication? Phytonadione is a prescription medication that serves as a synthetic version of vitamin K1, a nutrient the body requires to produce the proteins necessary for blood clotting. It is used to treat and prevent bleeding disorders caused by a deficiency in vitamin K, which can lead to prolonged or excessive bleeding even from minor injuries. By replenishing the levels of this vitamin, the medication helps the liver synthesize the essential factors needed to stabilize the blood and ensure normal coagulation. This medication is commonly used to reverse the effects of certain blood-thinning medications, such as warfarin, when levels become too high or if a patient requires urgent surgery. It is also frequently administered to newborn infants to prevent a condition known as vitamin K deficiency bleeding, as babies are typically born with low stores of this vitamin. Whether taken orally or by injection, phytonadione plays a critical role in managing bleeding risks across various medical scenarios.

PHYTONADIONE is made by Recordati. 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 PHYTONADIONE?

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 PHYTONADIONE?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover PHYTONADIONE?

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 Vitamin K Deficiency?

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.
