Is acyclovir covered by insurance?<\/a> | How much does acyclovir cost without insurance?<\/a> | How to get acyclovir without insurance<\/a><\/p>\n

Acyclovir<\/span> is a generic <\/span>prescription drug<\/span> used to control herpes infections caused by <\/span>herpes simplex virus<\/span><\/a> infections (such as <\/span>cold sores<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>genital herpes<\/span>) and herpes zoster (such as <\/span>chickenpox<\/span>, and <\/span>shingles<\/span><\/a>). However, some types of herpes infections, such as <\/span>mononucleosis<\/span><\/a>, are treated with different antiviral drugs. Depending on the type and severity of the infection, <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> can be taken orally as a tablet, capsule, or <\/span>oral suspension<\/span>, applied to infected areas of the skin, mouth, or genitals as a cream or ointment, applied to the surface of the eye as an ointment, or given as an intravenous infusion. Most forms of <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> are only sold as generics, but a <\/span>healthcare provider<\/span> may prescribe <\/span>brand-name<\/span> Zovirax<\/span> cream for <\/span>cold sores<\/span>. As a tablet or capsule, <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> is a moderately-priced <\/span>prescription drug<\/span>. <\/span>Topical<\/span> ointments and creams, however, are more expensive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

RELATED: Acyclovir side effects<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Is <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> covered by insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Oral, <\/span>topical<\/span>, and injected <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> are typically covered by commercial health insurance and <\/span>Medicare<\/span>. Coverage, however, will depend on the <\/span>insurance plan<\/span> and sometimes the drug format. For people on <\/span>Medicare<\/span>, <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> injections may be covered by either <\/span>Medicare<\/span> Part B or Part D<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How much does <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> cost without insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Pharmacy prices will vary, but the average cost of generic <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> tablets is $70 for 60, 400 mg tablets, enough for a 20-<\/span>day supply<\/span> at a <\/span>typical dosage<\/span><\/a> of three tablets per day. Of course, the dosage and treatment duration will vary depending on the type and severity of the infection. Some infections require only two days of treatment. For other infections, <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> treatment may last for weeks or months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For lip infections, a single 5-gram tube of <\/span>Zovirax<\/span> (5% <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> cream) will typically cost $874 without insurance. <\/span>Acyclovir<\/span> injections are typically billed by the <\/span>healthcare provider<\/span>, but the average price of a 20 mL vial (1000 mg) of generic Zovirax is $24. Again, the dose and duration of treatment will vary, so several vials may ultimately be used during treatment. Health <\/span>insurance plans<\/span> can help pay for <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> treatment, but the final out-of-pocket cost will depend on the type of <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> prescribed and the plan\u2019s <\/span>copay<\/span> cost and deductible.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to get <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> without insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n

1. Use a <\/span>free discount<\/span> coupon<\/span> from SingleCard<\/span><\/h3>\n

A <\/span>free coupon<\/span> from SingleCare can drop the <\/span>cash price<\/span> of generic <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> by almost 90%\u2014$8 with a SingleCare discount versus $70 at the full <\/span>retail price<\/span>. The savings can be even greater for higher-priced <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> cream or ointment. If there are any questions, visit SingleCare\u2019s <\/span>How It Works page<\/span><\/a> to find the most common frequently asked questions.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Find local 340B providers or community clinics<\/span><\/h3>\n

340B providers and public health clinics often provide low-priced generic medicines like <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> at reduced prices or for free. <\/span>Genital herpes<\/span> is considered an <\/span>STD<\/span>, so reproductive health clinics may be able to supply low-priced antiviral creams or ointments.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Shop around for the lowest price<\/span><\/h3>\n

The price of 60 <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> tablets can vary by as much as $50 depending on the pharmacy. Compare prices with a <\/span>SingleCare savings coupon<\/span><\/a> and the discount can be as much as $60 off the average <\/span>retail price<\/span>. SingleCare\u2019s <\/span>pharmacy finder<\/span><\/a> can help you locate local pharmacies that give SingleCare discounts.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Enroll in Medicaid<\/span><\/h3>\n

If medicines like <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> are too hard to pay for, consider enrolling in Medicaid. Each state has a Medicaid website that outlines income eligibility requirements, enrollment instructions, and additional information. Premiums are low or free, and <\/span>generic drugs<\/span> like <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> typically cost nothing or only a few dollars depending on the plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Ask the prescribing <\/span>healthcare provider<\/span> about symptomatic treatment<\/span><\/h3>\n

There are no over-the-counter drugs that fight off the herpes virus in the same way as prescription antivirals. Still, herpes flare-ups in healthy people typically go away on their own. Antivirals don\u2019t cure herpes. At best, they help clear the flare-up a couple of days earlier. If <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> is too expensive, ask the prescribing <\/span>healthcare provider<\/span> for <\/span>medical advice<\/span> about symptomatic treatment in place of antiviral treatment. In some cases, antivirals may be necessary. In others, it may be possible to get symptomatic relief with inexpensive over-the-counter drugs while waiting out the herpes flare-up.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

At a <\/span>retail price<\/span> of around $1 per pill, generic <\/span>acyclovir<\/span> tablets are affordable if only a few days of treatment are required. Longer treatment or <\/span>topical<\/span> acyclovir<\/span> may be hard to afford without <\/span>insurance coverage<\/span>. Sometimes patient assistance programs or manufacturer <\/span>coupons<\/span> can help, but these offers are uncertain and not everyone is eligible. There are other ways to save money on <\/span>acyclovir<\/span>, starting with a <\/span>SingleCare savings card<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
