Am I eligible for the Tirosint patient assistance program?

If you meet the eligibility criteria for Tirosint assistance, you could receive your Tirosint without paying the full retail price. To find out your eligibility, apply with us online. Once you submit your application, we will check to see if you are eligible for assistance. Eligibility criteria is set by the program. It’s important to note the factors that are considered by most programs include:

  • 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 Tirosint patient assistance program? 

We do everything we can to make it as easy as possible to apply for the Tirosint patient assistance program. Our process is simple and straightforward. You can begin by submitting your enrollment application through our website. To complete the application, you will need to tell us about any medications you’re taking, including Tirosint. We’ll also ask for details about your healthcare provider, your insurance plan, and your household income. 

We will review your application and if we determine that you may be eligible for Tirosint assistance, we’ll handle the full application process for you. We also request your Tirosint medication refills on your behalf for up to one year, once you are successfully enrolled in the program.

Is NiceRx a Tirosint coupons provider?

We are not a Tirosint coupon, a Tirosint discount card, or a Tirosint copay card provider. NiceRx is a service provider that helps eligible individuals access the Tirosint patient assistance program. This is likely to be the most affordable way to secure your essential medication, compared to printable Tirosint manufacturer coupons, Tirosint discounts, rebates, Tirosint savings cards, trial offers, or free Tirosint samples. Remember you will only ever pay $49 per month. 

Can NiceRx help me get Tirosint if I have insurance? 

If your insurance company won’t pay for your Tirosint medication, or you have a high copay or coinsurance responsibility, we may be able to help. This may even be the case if you don’t have insurance or your Medicare plan doesn’t cover Tirosint. Apply online to find out more.

How much is Tirosint with insurance?

The terms of your healthcare plan will determine how much you will need to pay for Tirosint with insurance. Speak to your insurance provider or pharmacist to find out more. 

How much does Tirosint cost without insurance?

Tirosint prices without insurance will vary depending on whether you buy Tirosint oral capsules or the oral solutions, and where you buy your Tirosint from. As a guide, a box of 30 Tirosint oral capsules will cost around $190. With NiceRx you’ll always pay a flat monthly fee of $49.

What is Tirosint?

If you have a condition called hypothyroidism, also called an underactive thyroid, your thyroid gland may not produce enough of a hormone called thyroxine. This can make you feel tired and cold and can cause depression and weight gain. It can affect your memory and concentration, make you short of breath, and can cause heavy menstrual periods in women. Having an underactive thyroid gland can lower your quality of life. 

One way to treat hypothyroidism is hormone replacement therapy where the natural levels of the hormone are topped up with synthetic hormones. This is what Tirosint does. It contains a synthetic version of the natural hormone thyroxine, called levothyroxine sodium. This helps to boost your hormone levels, providing relief from your symptoms. Tirosint can be taken by adults and children over the age of six years old.

Tirosint active ingredients

The active ingredient in Tirosint is called levothyroxine sodium. It’s a synthetic (man-made) version of the natural hormone your thyroid gland produces called thyroxine. Levothyroxine sodium has the same effect on your body as thyroxine. If you have low levels of thyroxine, levothyroxine sodium acts as a replacement hormone that can prevent you from feeling the symptoms of hypothyroidism.
