Your monthly Xenleta cost savings if eligible

The Xenleta patient assistance program can provide your medication for free. We simply charge $49 per month for each medication to cover the cost of our services. With NiceRx, you will only pay $49 to obtain your Xenleta, regardless of the retail price.

Am I eligible for the Xenleta patient assistance program?

To find out if you are eligible for Xenleta 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 Xenleta patient assistance program?

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

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

Can NiceRx help me get Xenleta if I have insurance?

What is Xenleta?

Xenleta is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Nabriva Therapeutics US, Inc.

Xenleta is a systemic pleuromutilin antibacterial used for the treatment of adults with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-susceptible isolates), Haemophilus influenzae, Legionella pneumophila, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Chlamydophila pneumonia.

To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of Xenleta and other antibacterial drugs, Xenleta should be used only to treat or prevent bacterial infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria, and not viral infections.

The safety and effectiveness of Xenleta in pediatric patients less than 18 years of age have not been established.

What doses of Xenleta are available?

Take Xenleta tablets at least 1 hour before a meal or 2 hours after a meal. Infuse Xenleta injection over 60 minutes. Reduce the dosage of Xenleta injection to 150 mg infused over 60 minutes every 24 hours in patients with severe hepatic impairment.
