Alimta Patient Assistance Program
Those who have certain types of non-small cell lung cancer may be prescribed Alimta along with other chemotherapy medications. Sadly, treatments such as chemotherapy drugs can be quite expensive for the average American. Some sources list the retail cost of the antifolate antineoplastic agent can exceed $3,957 for the powder for injection.
While the medication can be life-saving for some with cancer, the drug can be prohibitively expensive for those who do not have adequate insurance or proper government assistance.
Thankfully, Prescription Hope knows how to help. We offer access to the Alimta Patient Assistance Program for $70.00 per month, per medication. We handle everything from start to finish as well. That means we take care of every step of the application process and then manage your orders, refills, updates, and compliance requirements.
You simply sit back and get your medication shipped directly from the manufacturer to your door or doctor’s office.
What Is the Alimta Patient Assistance Program
Brand-name medications like Alimta can be extremely expensive for people who must pay out of pocket.
People may not realize that pharmaceutical manufacturers understand that the cost of their medications can be difficult for many Americans to afford. Knowing this, manufacturers choose to to launch Patient Assistance Programs to help patients afford their medication. These programs offer access to affordable medications for Americans who have been approved and accepted into the program.
Specifically, Alimta is offered to those approved for the Alimta Patient Assistance Program, providing affordable Alimta.
How Expert Advocates Make Alimta Affordable
Professional Application Management
Patient Assistance Programs, like the Alimta patient assistance program, have proven extremely beneficial for many Americans. However, they have been known to be confusing and overwhelming to apply for. Small errors, late documentation, or misunderstanding certain criteria can make it difficult for people who try to fill out their own applications.
Prescription Hope handles the entire application process from beginning to end for our patients. We provide prequalification and work with the manufacturer’s Patient Assistance Program to advocate on our patients’ behalf. Once the patient is approved, we not only handle the initial ordering process with the manufacturer but also schedule refills, manage updated documentation, and monitor accounts.
Predictable Monthly Pricing
Retailing at up to $3,957, Alimta can be difficult for many Americans to afford. Other programs exist to help patients save on their medication costs, such as discount cards, savings programs, coupons, and more. While these programs can offer savings, they also have a few disadvantages.
From unpredictable availability and fluctuating market pricing to limited discounts, many options may still leave a patient struggling to pay for their medication.
Prescription Hope gives a simple and predictable pricing model that cuts through all of the confusion. For $70.00 per month, per medication, Prescription Hope’s patients receive comprehensive medication access management. Not just that, but there are no hidden fees, tiered systems, or variable pricing structures.
And if we can’t get you access to your medication, then you pay nothing.

Understanding Alimta for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
How Alimta Works
Alimta (Pemetrexed) is an injection used in combination with other chemotherapy medications. It is called an antifolate antineoplastic agent. It works by blocking the activity of certain proteins that may help cancer cells multiply. Alimta prevents those proteins from helping cancer cells make RNA and DNA.
It is used as a first treatment for a certain type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but can also be used to treat NSCLC alone as an ongoing treatment in those who have received chemo and the cancer has not worsened.
It has also been used for patients who have not responded to other chemotherapies.
Program Benefits and Additional Support
Our advocates are with you every step of the way, prioritizing communication to ensure they always stay up to date with the progress of their application.
And while tens of thousands of patients have trusted us with their medication access management, many have trusted us with access to multiple brand-name meds at once.
