Are vascepa patient assistance forms available in your office?

Patient Assistance Programs: A Brief Overview

Vascepa (icosapent ethyl) is a prescription medication used to reduce triglyceride levels in adults with severe hypertriglyceridemia. To help make this medication more accessible, pharmaceutical companies often establish patient assistance programs (PAPs).

What Are Patient Assistance Programs?

Patient assistance programs are designed to help eligible patients obtain their prescribed medication at a reduced cost or for free. These programs are typically funded by pharmaceutical companies and can be offered directly through the manufacturer or through independent organizations [1].

Availability of Vascepa PAPs

Amarin Pharmaceuticals, the manufacturer of Vascepa, offers a patient assistance program called 'Vascepa Patient Savings Program' which covers many eligible patients and provides assistance with the out-of-pocket costs [2]. Additionally, independent organizations such as the 'Amarin Patient Support Program' and 'Together Prescription Savings' also help Vascepa patients access their medication.

How to Access Vascepa Patient Assistance Forms

If you are interested in obtaining help with the cost of Vascepa, you can visit Amarin's patient assistance website. The website provides more information on the patient savings program, including eligibility requirements, program terms, and the application process [3].
