How it works

  • Enroll online

    Get started by filling out the online enrollment application to find out if you are eligible for assistance.

  • Pre-qualification

    NiceRx verifies your eligibility for medication assistance and notifies you if you are pre-qualified. The pharmaceutical company provides your medication for free, and you only pay our service fee.

  • Submit documents

    We will request documents to be submitted by you and your healthcare provider that are required by the pharmaceutical company to complete your enrollment.

  • Receive medication

    Once approved, the pharmaceutical company typically ships a 90-day supply of medication to your home or healthcare provider’s address. Final acceptance is determined by the pharmaceutical company.

Your monthly Adakveo cost savings if eligible

The patient assistance program can provide your medication for free. We simply charge $49 per month for each medication to cover the cost of our services. With NiceRx, you will only pay $49 to obtain your Adakveo, regardless of the retail price.

Am I eligible for the Adakveo patient assistance program?

To find out if you are eligible for Adakveo assistance you can apply online using our enrollment application. Each pharmaceutical company sets its eligibility criteria, and we will review your application individually to determine if you may be eligible. The three main factors to consider are:

  • I am a permanent, legal resident of the United States or Puerto Rico
  • I am uninsured or my insurance doesn’t cover my medication
  • I meet certain income eligibility requirements

How do I apply for the Adakveo patient assistance program?

Our application process aims to make it as easy as possible to apply for the Adakveo patient assistance program. The first step is to complete our online enrollment application. We will ask you for details about your healthcare provider, your insurance plan, and your household income as this information is required by the pharmaceutical companies. We may be able to help you apply for other patient assistance programs too, so be sure to tell us about any medications you are taking as well as Adakveo.

NiceRx will review your application and determine whether you may be eligible for Adakveo assistance. If so, we will handle the full enrollment process for you and prepare all required documents for your healthcare provider to sign. Once you are successfully enrolled in the Adakveo patient assistance program, we will help you manage your prescription refills by requesting refills on your behalf throughout your enrollment period. At the end of your enrollment period we will contact you for updated information and seek to re-enroll you so you can continue to access affordable Adakveo.

Is NiceRx an Adakveo coupons provider?

NiceRx is a service provider that helps eligible individuals access the Adakveo patient assistance program. We do not offer trial offers or free Adakveo samples.

This will likely save you more money than if you were to use Adakveo coupons, discount cards, or Adakveo copay cards.

Can NiceRx help me get Adakveo if I have insurance?

NiceRx may be able to help you if your insurance company will not pay for your Adakveo medication. We may also be able to help if you have a high copay or coinsurance responsibility. Whether you have insurance or not, apply online using our enrollment application to find out more.

What is Adakveo?

Adakveo (crizanlizumab-tmca) is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. Adakveo is a biologic drug that’s available only as a brand-name medication and does not come in a biosimilar form.

Adakveo is a selectin blocker indicated to reduce the frequency of vasoocclusive crises (also known as VOCs or pain crises) in adults and pediatric patients 16 years of age and older with sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder in which red blood cells are abnormally shaped, restricting their flow in blood vessels and limiting oxygen delivery to the body’s tissues, leading to severe pain and organ damage.

What doses of Adakveo are available?

Adakveo is available in injection form, in the following doses: 100 mg/10 mL (10 mg/mL) solution in a single-dose vial.

Administer 5 mg/kg by intravenous infusion over a period of 30 minutes on Week 0, Week 2, and every 4 weeks thereafter. See the full prescribing information for instructions on preparation and administration.

Always speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice or about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
