Did you know that you can get your Epi-Pens or your Auvi-Q (new brand of epinephrine auto-injector) for free? Both companies are offering a $0 Co-Pay program. I wasn’t aware of these programs until a friend told me – before that I was paying over $100 each time I needed to get a refill, which adds up when you need one for school, one for home, and one more to be safe! Plus, they expire every year, so you are forced to get new ones and dump the old.
Here’s how it works:
The Epi-Pen $0 Co-Pay Offer:
What is it?
It’s a savings offer that you can print or store on your smartphone. The EpiPen® $0 Co-Pay Offer helps eligible patients save on out-of-pocket costs for up to $100 per each EpiPen 2-Pak carton. It will cover up to 3 EpiPen 2-Pak cartons per prescription fill. Just present your card at the pharmacy each time you drop off or refill your prescription.
Use it again and again.
Your EpiPen $0 co-pay card is reusable for each prescription through December 31, 2014. It’s good for up to three EpiPen 2-Pak or EpiPen Jr 2-Pak cartons at a time, so you can have several EpiPen 2-Pak cartons available in different locations.
Patient Instructions*: Present your card along with a valid prescription for EpiPen® (epinephrine) Auto-Injectors 2-Pak carton or EpiPen Jr (epinephrine) Auto-Injectors 2-Pak carton. Maximum benefit of $100 per EpiPen 2-Pak® carton where applicable. This offer may be used on up to three EpiPen 2-Pak cartons per prescription. This offer can be used an unlimited number of times until the offer expires on 12/31/2014.

Prescriber ID# required on prescription. This offer is not valid for prescriptions covered by or submitted for reimbursement under Medicaid, Medicare, or similar federal or state programs including any state medical pharmaceutical assistance program.
Patient Instructions: If prescription is covered by insurance, you may need to notify the insurance carrier of redemption of this copay card. Patient not eligible if prescriptions are paid in part or full by any state or federally funded programs, including, but not limited to, Medicare or Medicaid.
