Are there any restrictions on using a vascepa coupon?



Vascepa is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient icosapent ethyl and is used to lower triglyceride levels in adults with severe hypertriglyceridemia [1]. According to the official Vascepa website, there are restrictions on using a Vascepa coupon. The coupon is only available to patients who have commercial insurance and are not enrolled in a state or federally funded healthcare program, such as Medicare or Medicaid. Patients who are eligible for the coupon can save up to $75 per month on their Vascepa prescription, with a maximum annual savings of $900 [3].

GoodRx, a website that provides information on prescription drug prices and discounts, indicates that Medicare coverage for Vascepa is limited. Medicare Part D plans may cover Vascepa, but patients may still be required to pay a portion of the cost, depending on their plan. GoodRx also notes that the price of Vascepa without insurance can be quite high, with a cost of around $400 for a 1-month supply [2].

DrugPatentWatch, a website that provides information on drug patents and generic alternatives, does not provide any information on restrictions for using a Vascepa coupon [1].
