Am I eligible for the Gvoke HypoPen patient assistance program?

To find out if you are eligible for Gvoke Hypopen 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 Gvoke HypoPen patient assistance program?

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

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

What is Gvoke HypoPen?

Gvoke Hypopen (glucagon injection) is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Xeris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. It contains a room temperature, liquid-stable form of glucagon that is auto-injected when pressed against the body, similar to how an EpiPen works to treat severe allergic reactions.

Gvoke Hypopen is the first pre-mixed, pre-filled syringe (PFS), and pre-measured liquid glucagon indicated for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia (severe low blood sugar levels) in emergency situations in adults and pediatric patients aged 2 years and above with diabetes.

What doses of Gvoke HypoPen are available?

Gvoke Hypopen is available in injection form, in the following doses: 0.5 mg/0.1 mL single-dose pre-filled HypoPen auto-injector, 1 mg/0.2 mL single-dose pre-filled HypoPen auto-injector, 0.5 mg/0.1 mL single-dose pre-filled syringe, 1 mg/0.2 mL single-dose pre-filled syringe.

Please read the prescribing information and instructions for use and always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Gvoke HypoPen active ingredients

Gvoke Hypopen contains glucagon as the active ingredient.

Gvoke HypoPen side effects

The most common side effects of Gvoke Hypopen in clinical trials include:

  • Nausea, vomiting
  • Injection site edema raised 1 mm or greater, injection site discomfort, reaction, and urticaria
  • Headache
  • Hypoglycemia
  • Abdominal pain
  • Hyperglycemia

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

  • Catecholamine release in patients with pheochromocytoma
  • Hypoglycemia in patients with insulinoma – if a patient develops symptoms of hypoglycemia after a dose of Gvoke, give glucose orally or intravenously
  • Hypersensitivity and allergic reactions, including generalized rash, anaphylactic shock with breathing difficulties, and hypotension
  • Lack of efficacy in patients with decreased hepatic glycogen. Patients in states of starvation, with adrenal insufficiency or chronic hypoglycemia may not have adequate levels of hepatic glycogen for Gvoke to be effective. Treat patients with these conditions with glucose
  • Necrolytic migratory erythema (NME) – should NME occur, consider whether the benefits of continuous glucagon infusion outweigh the risks
  • Hypoglycemia in patients with glucagonoma – test patients suspected of having glucagonoma for blood levels of glucagon before treatment, and monitor blood glucose levels during treatment. If a patient develops hypoglycemia, give glucose orally or intravenously

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

Gvoke Hypopen can interact with other medications. These include:

  • Beta-blockers – may have a transient increase in pulse and blood pressure
  • Gvoke may lose its ability to raise glucose or may produce hypoglycemia in patients taking indomethacin
  • Gvoke may increase the anticoagulant effect of warfarin

This list is not exhaustive and other prescription drugs may interact with Gvoke Hypopen.
