REMICADE Price

The cost of prescription medications can vary depending on your insurance coverage. If you're concerned about the price of your medication:

  • Contact your insurance provider to understand your coverage
  • Ask your doctor or pharmacist about lower-cost alternatives
  • Check with the drug manufacturer about financial assistance programs
  • Explore patient assistance options if you're uninsured or underinsured

Remember, many resources exist to help patients access necessary medications. Don't hesitate to ask for help if you're struggling with medication costs. No patient should go without necessary treatment due to financial limitations. If you have questions about financial assistance opportunities, contact a member of our Violet Health team.

  • Infusion-related reactions, like nausea, headache, and flushing, are common infliximab side effects.
