About XYLOCAINE(R) -MPF (LIDOCAINE HCI AND EPINEPHRINE) and its cost

What is this medication? XYLOCAINE-MPF is an injectable prescription medication used to provide local or regional anesthesia for a variety of surgical and diagnostic procedures. It combines lidocaine hydrochloride, which serves as the numbing agent, with epinephrine, which acts as a vasoconstrictor. The epinephrine component narrows blood vessels in the localized area, helping to minimize bleeding and extending the duration of the anesthetic effect by slowing the rate at which the lidocaine is absorbed into the circulatory system.

The MPF designation indicates that this formulation is methylparaben-free, meaning it contains no preservatives that might otherwise trigger sensitivities in certain individuals. It is frequently employed for nerve blocks or infiltration anesthesia during minor operations or dental treatments where localized pain control is necessary. This medication is administered exclusively by trained medical professionals who monitor the patient's heart rate and blood pressure throughout its use to ensure safety and efficacy.

XYLOCAINE(R) -MPF (LIDOCAINE HCI AND EPINEPHRINE) 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(R) -MPF (LIDOCAINE HCI AND EPINEPHRINE)?

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(R) -MPF (LIDOCAINE HCI AND EPINEPHRINE)?

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(R) -MPF (LIDOCAINE HCI AND EPINEPHRINE)?

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 Pain?

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.
