Cheap tagrisso?

Tagrisso (osimertinib) is a prescription cancer drug and can be very expensive. Here are legitimate ways to lower the cost and improve access. If you tell me your country and whether you have insurance, I can tailor this more precisely.

- Talk to your doctor about options
- Is there a clinical trial available near you?
- Are there alternative EGFR inhibitors that might be appropriate for your situation?

- Manufacturer patient assistance and copay programs
- AstraZeneca often offers a patient assistance or copay program for Tagrisso that can reduce out-of-pocket costs for eligible patients.
- Your oncology clinic or pharmacist can help you apply.

- Insurance and government programs
- Check with your insurer about coverage and prior authorization; sometimes a different tier or plan reduces costs.
- In the U.S., look into Medicare Part D plans and Medicaid/other state programs for help with high-cost cancer meds.
- Some countries have national or regional programs to subsidize cancer drugs.

- Discount cards and cash price options
- Pharmacy discount programs (like GoodRx in the U.S.) can sometimes lower the cash price even if you have insurance.
- Call several nearby pharmacies to compare cash price and “out-of-pocket” price with your specific insurance.

- Consider generics where available
- In some regions, generic osimertinib may be available. Availability and price vary by country, so check locally with a pharmacist.

- Safe sourcing
- Only obtain Tagrisso from licensed pharmacies. Do not buy from unverified sellers.

If you share your country and whether you have insurance (and any drug assistance you’ve already tried), I can look up current programs and approximate prices to help you plan.
