About Sular and its cost

What is this medication? Sular is a prescription medication used primarily for the treatment of hypertension, or high blood pressure. It belongs to a class of drugs known as calcium channel blockers, specifically the dihydropyridine subclass. The active ingredient in this medication is nisoldipine. By effectively lowering blood pressure, it helps reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney failure. It works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the heart and blood vessels, which allows blood to circulate more easily throughout the body.

The medication is usually formulated as an extended-release tablet that is taken once daily to provide consistent blood pressure management over a twenty-four-hour period. Because it is designed for slow release, the tablets should be swallowed whole and not crushed or chewed. Patients taking this drug are typically advised to avoid consuming grapefruit or grapefruit juice, as these can significantly increase the level of the medication in the bloodstream. Managing high blood pressure with Sular is often one component of a broader treatment plan that may also include lifestyle adjustments like a healthy diet and regular physical activity.

Sular is made by Covis. 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 Sular?

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 Sular?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Sular?

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 Hypertension?

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.
