About PROCHLORPERAZINE MALEATE and its cost

What is this medication? Prochlorperazine maleate is a prescription medication primarily used to control severe nausea and vomiting. It belongs to a class of drugs called phenothiazines and is frequently prescribed for patients recovering from surgery, undergoing chemotherapy, or suffering from severe migraine attacks. By blocking dopamine receptors in the brain, the medication helps suppress the signals that trigger the urge to vomit and provides relief from persistent digestive distress and vertigo. Beyond its use as an anti-nausea treatment, this medication is also indicated for the short-term management of generalized non-psychotic anxiety. In some clinical settings, it may be used to treat symptoms of certain mental health disorders, such as schizophrenia, due to its antipsychotic properties. It is available in several forms, including oral tablets and suppositories, and should always be taken exactly as directed by a healthcare provider to minimize the risk of side effects.

PROCHLORPERAZINE MALEATE is made by GlaxoSmithKline. 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 PROCHLORPERAZINE MALEATE?

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 PROCHLORPERAZINE MALEATE?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover PROCHLORPERAZINE MALEATE?

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 Generalized Anxiety Disorder?

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.
