About LODOCO
What is this medication? Lodoco is a prescription medication that contains a low dose of colchicine, specifically 0.5 mg. It is the first anti-inflammatory drug approved by the FDA to help reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, such as heart attack, stroke, and cardiovascular death, in adults who have established atherosclerotic disease or who are at high risk for developing cardiovascular problems.
The medication works by targeting and reducing the inflammation associated with the buildup of plaque in the arteries, a condition known as atherosclerosis. While many treatments focus on managing cholesterol or blood pressure, Lodoco provides an additional layer of protection by addressing the inflammatory processes that contribute to heart disease complications. It is typically used as a long-term treatment alongside other standard preventative therapies like statins.

How to read this:plans on the same formulary share tier + PA rules. Your specific plan's copay depends on (a) the tier above, (b) your plan's cost-share for that tier, (c) whether you're in the initial coverage phase or past the 2026 $2,000 out-of-pocket cap. For your exact plan, check its Summary of Benefits or log in to your Medicare.gov account. Copay cards don't apply to Medicare (federal law).
