About Pituitarum posterium and its cost
What is this medication? Pituitarum posterium, also known as posterior pituitary extract, is a medicinal preparation derived from the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland of animals. It contains two primary hormones, oxytocin and vasopressin, which perform essential regulatory functions in the human body. Historically, this medication was administered through injection or intranasal routes to address various physiological imbalances related to these specific endocrine outputs. The primary clinical applications of this medication involve its effects on smooth muscle and water retention. It is frequently utilized to limit uterine contractions during childbirth and to manage bleeding following delivery. Additionally, its vasopressin content makes it effective for treating diabetes insipidus, a condition characterized by extreme thirst and the production of large amounts of dilute urine. While synthetic alternatives are more common today, Pituitarum posterium remains a classic hormonal therapy for managing labor and regulating fluid balance.
Pituitarum posterium 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 Pituitarum posterium?
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 Pituitarum posterium?
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 Pituitarum posterium?
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 Insipidus?
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.
