How it works

    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.

Am I eligible for the Bafiertam patient assistance program?

To find out if you are eligible for Bafiertam 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 Bafiertam patient assistance program?

Our application process aims to make it as easy as possible to apply for the Bafiertam 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 Bafiertam.

NiceRx will review your application and determine whether you may be eligible for Bafiertam 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 Bafiertam 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 Bafiertam.

What is Bafiertam?

Bafiertam is an FDA-approved (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) medication manufactured by Banner Life Sciences LLC. Bafiertam is indicated for the treatment of relapsing forms of MS, including clinically isolated syndrome, relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), and active secondary progressive disease, in adults. Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.

What doses of Bafiertam are available?

Bafiertam is available in delayed-release capsule form, in the following doses: 95 mg.

Your doctor should perform blood tests to check your liver function before you start taking Bafiertam and during treatment if needed. The starting dose is 95 mg orally twice a day, for 7 days. The maintenance dose after 7 days is 190 mg (administered as two 95 mg capsules) twice a day. Swallow the capsules whole. Do not crush, chew, or mix the contents with food. Bafiertam can be taken with or without food.

Read the prescribing information and always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Bafiertam active ingredients

Bafiertam is a disease-modifying therapy (DMT), that treats relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS) by the same mechanism of action as Tecfidera, (dimethyl fumarate, DMF). DMF is absorbed in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, where it’s converted to become the active agent monomethyl fumarate (MMF) that treats MS. Bafiertam contains the active agent MMF, so it doesn’t need to be converted.

Bafiertam 190 mg was FDA approved by demonstrating that its dose was bioequivalent to DMF 240 mg following oral administration. MMF (380 mg/day) is bioequivalent to DMF (480 mg/day).

Bafiertam side effects

The most common side effects of Bafiertam in clinical trials (incidence for dimethyl fumarate [the prodrug of Bafiertam]≥10% and ≥2% more than placebo) include:

  • Flushing
  • Abdominal pain
  • Diarrhea
  • Loss of appetite
  • Nausea

In rare instances, Bafiertam can cause more serious side effects. These can include:

  • Anaphylaxis and angioedema
  • Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) – symptoms include clumsiness, impairment of coordination, weakness, sudden change in your thinking, confusion, difficulty concentrating, memory loss, difficulty talking, walking, seizure, and vision changes
  • Herpes zoster and other serious opportunistic infections
  • Lymphopenia – obtain a CBC including lymphocyte count before initiating treatment, after 6 months, and every 6 to 12 months thereafter
  • Liver Injury

Your doctor will assess the benefits of using Bafiertam against your risk of side effects. Patients are encouraged to report negative side effects or adverse reactions of Bafiertam to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Bafiertam drug interactions

Bafiertam can interact with other medications. These include:

  • Drugs that weaken the immune system and increase the risk of infection – natalizumab, rituximab
  • Medications containing dimethyl fumarate or diroximel fumarate
