About ULTRAMICROSIZE GRISEOFULVIN and its cost

What is this medication? Ultramicrosize griseofulvin is an antifungal prescription medication used to treat various types of fungal infections that affect the skin, hair, and nails. This specific formulation uses smaller particles to improve the absorption of the drug into the bloodstream compared to the standard microsize version. Healthcare providers typically prescribe it for conditions such as ringworm, athlete foot, jock itch, and fungal infections of the scalp or nails that have not responded to topical creams or ointments.

The medication works by binding to keratin in newly forming skin cells, hair, and nails, which creates a barrier that prevents fungi from invading and growing. Because the drug relies on the growth of new, healthy tissue to clear the infection, treatment often lasts for several weeks or months. It is important to continue taking the medication for the full duration prescribed by a doctor, even if symptoms appear to clear up quickly, to ensure the infection does not return.

ULTRAMICROSIZE GRISEOFULVIN is made by Sebela. 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 ULTRAMICROSIZE GRISEOFULVIN?

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 ULTRAMICROSIZE GRISEOFULVIN?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover ULTRAMICROSIZE GRISEOFULVIN?

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 Ringworm of the scalp and beard?

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.
