Patients diagnosed with HIV-1 who have developed resistance to more than one protease inhibitor may be prescribed Aptivus in combination with ritonavir. The medication works by blocking the protease enzyme, inhibiting it from helping the infection spread.
The medication retails for $2,054.00 or more for 120 capsules.
Unfortunately, the high cost can make it difficult for those who struggle financially to get treatment. However, another option does exist.
Prescription Hope offers access to Aptivus through the Aptivus Patient Assistance Program for $70.00 per month, per medication. Not only that, but Prescription Hope also manages patient’s ordering, refills, updates, yearly renewals, and more for as long as they are a patient with us.
What Is the Aptivus Patient Assistance Program
Every day, many Americans across the nation struggle to afford their medications. Because of this, many may skip taking their medication to afford things like rent, bills, food, and gas.
Manufacturers of brand-name medications have provided a solution by instituting programs for many of their products. These programs are called Patient Assistance Programs. They offer medication at affordable rates to qualified patients.
For instance, the manufacturer of Aptivus offers an Aptivus Patient Assistance Program that helps those who struggle financially and do not have adequate insurance coverage to afford it.
How Expert Advocates Make Aptivus Affordable
Professional Application Management
While Patient Assistant Programs are vital for patients who need life-saving medication, several considerations apply. PAPs typically hold stringent criteria to ensure that the people who desperately need low-cost or free medication can get access. While this means protecting both the manufacturer and consumer, the requirements can be difficult to navigate without guidance. Not only that, but extensive documentation, in-depth communication with healthcare providers, and unannounced program changes can leave the average American feeling overwhelmed and confused. Unfortunately, any delays, errors, or confusion can result in a rejection from the program.
For 20 years, Prescription Hope has navigated the PAP world for patients across the nation. We not only handle form completion but also coordinate with all necessary healthcare providers, communicate with the manufacturer, and ensure that all required documents and forms are sent on time and in order.
And most importantly, everything we do, we offer for an unmatched service fee of $70.00 per month, per medication.
Predictable Monthly Pricing
Patient Assistance Programs offer a powerful opportunity for those in need to get the medications they need at affordable rates. However, other options do exist.
Discount cards, coupons, savings and share programs, and government assistance are also viable options. Unfortunately, these can also come with drawbacks.
Some people fall into gaps in government assistance. At the same time, even insurance coverage can become expensive with high copays and deductibles. Options such as discount cards, coupons, and savings programs may only offer a limited discount on the medication, and the availability of the needed medication can be unpredictable.
Prescription Hope gives you a better way to get access to affordable medication. We are not an insurance company, discount card, or share program. Instead, we offer a comprehensive medication access service to all of our patients. We not only handle the entire application process to get access to medications through PAPs, but we also manage your medication once you’re approved. We coordinate with the manufacturer, handle ordering, manage refill schedules, update documents, and even conduct active monitoring to ensure compliance.
We do all of this for a simple $70.00 per month, per medication. No hidden fees, surprise charges, variable pricing, tiered systems, or medication costs. Our price does not fluctuate based on medication prices, nor do we offer a limited percentage off your meds. For $70.00 per month, you get your needed brand-name medication shipped from the manufacturer directly to your door.

Understanding Aptivus for HIV
How Aptivus Works
Aptivus (tipranavir) is prescribed to those with HIV-1 who have already been treated with other HIV medications and have developed resistance to more than one protease inhibitor.
It is an antiviral medication that helps prevent HIV from multiplying. Used with ritonavir, the medication binds and blocks certain enzymes, helping inhibit their functioning and preventing the virus from making copies. The medication helps preserve the patient’s immune system.
It is considered a protease inhibitor and retails for around $2,054.00 for 120 capsules.
