I am currently taking multiple doses of BRIVIACT and it’s been a long journey of adjustments. From my AM and PM being reduced and now increased. I am at a prescribed level of 100mg in the morning and 125mg in the evening. This involves me purchasing two prescriptions for at least 10 dollars a piece.
Is there a program that anyone knows of that would help cover the costs difference that part D doesn’t.
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member , You might try contacting your local Epilepsy Foundation & let them know your situation & ask if they could help or if they could recommend a way for you to get some help. When I didn’t have any insurance, my local Epilepsy Foundation apparently put me on a program that they had & I paid $25 dollars a year & it covered my meds, my phone check-ups with my Neurologist & blood work. At first I was put on Vimpat & at the time there wasn’t a generic available & so I called the manufacturer of Vimpat & they offer a Patient Assistance Program, just like many meds do, & I applied for the program & was approved. So you could also see if Briviact’s manufacturer has a Patient Assistance Program & contact them. A few years ago when I needed help, I contacted the manufacturer of my Depakote & they provided my Depakote for free & I contacted the manufacturer for my Trileptal & they offered a discount. So you just have to ask. If you go to www.epilepsy.com, you can look up your local Epilepsy Foundation & you’ll find a variety of ways you can contact them but for some reason they don’t have a website. If you go to www.Google.com & type in something like “Manufacturer of Briviact” then look around & maybe you’ll find a page for the manufacturer of the Briviact & then go to that page & on that website it might say something about a Patient Assistance Program. You likely would have to provide some information to them. Hope this helps. Good luck. Your friend in Texas, Becky
My daughter is 6 been taking it for 6 days now. Been to school yesterday had a stare seizure cause a tonic urinate accident. Then a seizure hours later while taking nap takes 3.5 ml and 3.2 tropimate twice a day. Side effects tiredness,bad headaches,and random sowing off to sleep
go to the Briviact website as they have a savings that you can sign up for directly through the manufacturer and it will give you a 30 day supply at reasonable pricing. briviact.com is the website to visit for getting more of this information that is needed on savings.
A second option is to check GoodRX website as that may also give you a discount on the medication as well. I wish you well and hope the above helps.
Get a hold of your Senate and tell them you want drug costs lowered. Or try texting this and say yes
