CVS has announced a more cost-effective version of the EpiPen, qualifying customers may pay as little as $10 (or less)

Mylan ruffled quite a few feathers last summer with its controversial decision to raise the cost of an EpiPen to over $500 for some customers. This important medical device has been the target of many politicians and activist groups in the time since. This morning, CVS announced that it would sell a new two-dose generic version called Adrenaclick for $109.99 (with or without insurance). Impax, maker of this lesser-priced kit, is also offering a coupon that would bring the cost down to just $9.99 (or less) for qualifying patients. You’ll need to print out this page and bring it to your local participating pharmacy to confirm your eligibility. Either way, seeing this crucial medicine drop to more affordable levels is great news.

To Patient: Present this offer to your pharmacy along with a valid prescription for epinephrine auto-injector. This offer is valid for a maximum savings of $100 per pack (limit of 3 packs). By using this offer, you acknowledge that you meet the Eligibility Criteria and will comply with the Terms and Conditions. If you have any questions, regarding this offer, call 1-855-572-8006. Patients may not combine this offer with any rebate, coupon, free trial, or similar offer. Patients must present a valid prescription for an eligible drug at a participating pharmacy. This card is not valid for prescriptions submitted for reimbursement to Medicare, Medicaid, other federal or state programs, or private indemnity or HMO insurance plans that reimburse you for the entire cost of your prescription drugs. Patients may not use this card if they are Medicare-eligible and enrolled in an employer-sponsored health plan.
