About RYZNEUTA and its cost

What is this medication? RYZNEUTA is a prescription medicine used to decrease the risk of infection in adults with certain types of cancer who are receiving chemotherapy. Chemotherapy often causes a decrease in a specific type of white blood cell known as neutrophils, which are essential for fighting off bacterial infections. When these cell counts drop too low, a condition called febrile neutropenia can occur, making the patient highly susceptible to serious illness. By administering this medication, healthcare providers aim to maintain healthier immune levels throughout the course of anti-cancer treatments.

The medication works as a long-acting leukocyte growth factor that stimulates the bone marrow to produce more neutrophils. It is typically given as a subcutaneous injection after a chemotherapy session has been completed. By boosting the production of these vital white blood cells, RYZNEUTA helps the body strengthen its natural defenses against pathogens, thereby reducing the likelihood of hospitalizations or delays in cancer treatment due to infection.

RYZNEUTA is made by Evive. 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 RYZNEUTA?

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 RYZNEUTA?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover RYZNEUTA?

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 Cancer?

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.
