Am I eligible for Truxima patient assistance?

To be eligible for the Truxima patient assistance program, you will need to meet specific eligibility criteria set by the pharmaceutical company. At NiceRx, we review each Truxima 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 Truxima patient assistance program?

Applying for the Truxima 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 Truxima, so please tell us about any medications that you have been prescribed.

If we determine that you may be eligible for Truxima 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 Truxima patient assistance program, we will also request your Truxima 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.

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

Truxima active ingredients

Rituximab-abbs is a monoclonal antibody. Rituximab products target the CD20 antigen expressed on the surface of pre-B and mature B-lymphocytes. Once bound to CD20, rituximab products mediate B-cell lysis. The possible mechanism of action of cell lysis includes complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). B cells are thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and associated chronic synovitis.

Truxima side effects

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

  • Infusion reactions
  • Nausea, diarrhea
  • Lymphopenia
  • Low white and red blood cells – chills, fever, aches, fatigue
  • Anemia
  • Blisters
  • Swelling in your hands or feet
  • Headache, weakness
  • Painful urination

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

  • Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS)
  • Serious infections
  • Cardiac adverse reactions
  • Bowel obstruction and perforation – evaluate for abdominal pain, vomiting, or related symptoms
