  • I meet certain income eligibility requirements

How do I apply for the Bendeka patient assistance program?

Applying for the Bendeka patient assistance program through NiceRx is simple. Begin by completing the enrollment application on our website. We will ask for details about your healthcare provider, your insurance plan, and your household income. This information is required by the pharmaceutical manufacturers that supply your medication.

If we determine that you may be eligible for Bendeka assistance, we will handle the full enrollment process on your behalf. We will work with your healthcare provider to prepare and submit all the documents required for you to enroll.

For Chronic lymphocytic leukemia administer 100 mg/m2 infused intravenously over 10 minutes on Days 1 and 2 of a 28­ day cycle, up to 6 treatment cycles. Make dose modifications for hematologic toxicity or non-hematologic toxicity.

Please read the full prescribing information and always speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice or about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Bendeka active ingredients

Bendeka contains the active ingredient bendamustine. Bendeka forms bonds with other electron-rich molecules, which results in interstrand DNA crosslinks and very strong bonds. Because cancer cells divide faster than normal cells, they are more affected by this bonding and the death rate of cancerous cells is greater than the death rate of normal cells. This slows the growth of cancer cells in the body.

Bendeka side effects

The most common side effects of bendamustine in clinical trials include:

  • Pyrexia
  • Nausea, and vomiting
  • Tiredness
  • Loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea, constipation, anorexia
