Am I eligible for Eraxis patient assistance?

To be eligible for the Eraxis patient assistance program, you will need to meet specific eligibility criteria set by the pharmaceutical company. At NiceRx, we review each Eraxis enrollment application individually. The main factors considered 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 Eraxis patient assistance program?

Applying for the Eraxis 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. We may be able to help you access patient assistance for other medications as well as Eraxis, so please tell us about any medications that you have been prescribed.

If we determine that you may be eligible for Eraxis 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. If you are successfully enrolled in the Eraxis patient assistance program, we will also request your Eraxis medication refills on your behalf for up to 1 year. At the end of your enrollment period, we will contact you for updated details and seek to re-enroll you in the program.

Is NiceRx an Eraxis coupons provider?

NiceRx does not provide Eraxis coupons, discount cards or copay cards. We do not offer printable Eraxis manufacturer coupons, Eraxis discounts, rebates, Eraxis savings cards, trial offers, or free samples.

What is Eraxis?

Eraxis is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Pfizer Inc. Eraxis is an echinocandin antifungal therapy indicated for the treatment of the following fungal infections:

  • Candidemia and other forms of Candida infections (intra-abdominal abscess and peritonitis) in adults and pediatric patients (1 month of age and older)
  • Esophageal candidiasis in adults

Eraxis has not been studied in adult and pediatric patients with endocarditis, osteomyelitis, and meningitis due to Candida or insufficient numbers of neutropenic patients. The dosage of Eraxis for the treatment of Candida dissemination into the CNS and the eye has not been established. Eraxis is associated with high relapse rates in esophageal candidiasis.

What doses of Eraxis are available?

Eraxis is available in injection form, in the following doses: 50 mg, and 100 mg as a lyophilized powder in a single-dose vial for reconstitution.

Eraxis for injection requires reconstitution with diluent Sterile Water for Injection and subsequent dilution with either 5% Dextrose Injection, USP or 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (normal saline). Eraxis reconstituted solution can be stored at 25°C (77°F) for up to 24 hours prior to dilution into the infusion solution.

The recommended dose is a single 200 mg loading dose on Day 1, followed by a 100 mg once daily maintenance dose thereafter. Dosage adjustments are not required for geriatric patients or for patients with hepatic or renal insufficiency.

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

Eraxis active ingredients

Eraxis contains anidulafungin, a semisynthetic echinocandin with antifungal activity. Anidulafungin’s mechanism of action is to inhibit glucan synthase, an enzyme present in fungal, but not mammalian cells. This results in inhibition of the formation of 1,3-β-D-glucan, a vital part of the fungal cell wall.

Eraxis side effects

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

  • Candidemia and other forms of Candida infections
  • Hypokalemia
  • Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, pyrexia
  • Insomnia
  • Hypotension
  • Anemia
  • Headache
  • Dyspepsia
  • Constipation, abdominal pain
  • Thrombocytopenia
  • Neutropenia
  • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) increased
  • Hypoglycemia, epistaxis, and rash

In rare instances, Eraxis can cause more serious adverse events. These can include:

  • Anaphylactic and hypersensitivity reactions
  • Hepatic effects – abnormal liver function tests, hepatitis, hepatic failure
  • Risk of infusion-related adverse reactions, possibly histamine-mediated, including rash, urticaria, flushing, pruritus, bronchospasm, dyspnea, and hypotension
  • Risk of neonatal toxicity associated with polysorbates
  • Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI)

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

Eraxis drug interactions

Administration of multiple doses of anidulafungin and cyclosporine, voriconazole, tacrolimus, rifampin, or liposomal amphotericin B to healthy subjects resulted in no significant alteration in the steady state pharmacokinetics of either drug. No dosage adjustment of either drug is needed when the two drugs are co-administered.

  • Are allergic to the active ingredient anidulafungin
