There are lots of buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) coupons available online, though we recommend cautiously reviewing coupon options before choosing one.
If you have health insurance and are seeking assistance with medication copays, then we recommend you consult with your health insurance company about which coupons are supported by your health plan. While many private insurance companies and Medicare and Medicaid cover buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone), many may not cover the specific formulation or maximum daily dose or length of treatment being prescribed So, it is a good idea to check with your insurance about what is covered and if your provider needs to apply for a prior authorization first. That way, you are more likely to get the buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) covered and not need coupons.
Patients who are unable to afford buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) (regardless of insurance coverage) can apply for cost-assistance. The company that makes buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) offers this type of program to help reduce out-of-pocket expenses. To learn more, go to: inSupport program.
