About XYLOCAINE- MPF (LIDOCAINE HCl ) and its cost
What is this medication? XYLOCAINE-MPF is a sterile, preservative-free solution of lidocaine hydrochloride that functions as a local anesthetic. It is used to provide loss of sensation or numbness in specific parts of the body during medical, dental, or surgical procedures. Because it is methylparaben-free, this specific formulation is often selected for procedures where preservatives must be avoided, such as epidural or spinal anesthesia. It can also be used for peripheral nerve blocks and local infiltration to manage pain during minor surgeries or diagnostic tests.
The medication works by stabilizing the neuronal membrane, which prevents the initiation and conduction of nerve impulses. By blocking these signals, the drug stops pain messages from reaching the brain, ensuring the patient remains comfortable throughout the duration of a procedure. It is administered by a healthcare professional through an injection into the skin or near the nerves serving the affected area. The onset of action is typically rapid, and the duration of the numbing effect depends on the concentration used and the specific site of administration.
XYLOCAINE- MPF (LIDOCAINE HCl ) is made by Fresenius Kabi. 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 XYLOCAINE- MPF (LIDOCAINE HCl )?
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 XYLOCAINE- MPF (LIDOCAINE HCl )?
No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Fresenius Kabi has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.
Does my Medicare Part D plan cover XYLOCAINE- MPF (LIDOCAINE HCl )?
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 your condition?
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.
