Are you struggling to afford your Brilinta prescription? For many people, prescription medications are a large part of their monthly out-of-pocket expenses. Due to the high cost of Brilinta, affording this drug is difficult, especially for those who need adequate health insurance coverage. People often search for Brilinta coupons, savings cards, or other discounts to help cut Brilinta costs. These short-term savings, however, are usually not enough.

At The Rx Advocates, we understand the challenges of paying for prescription medications and are here to help. We connect patients to patient assistance programs that offer more substantial and long-term savings than a Brilinta coupon. And if you use other prescription drugs, we can help you apply for multiple patient assistance programs. The Rx Advocates can remove the financial burden of prescriptions, helping you secure maximum savings so that you don’t skip your medications due to high out-of-pocket costs.

Accessing the Brilinta patient assistance program

Looking for a dependable way to afford your monthly prescriptions? The Rx Advocates provides financial assistance for prescription medications by helping our clients access patient assistance programs. A well-known nationwide prescription advocacy service, we partner with US-based pharmaceutical manufacturers that offer patient assistance programs. We handle all the application paperwork, making it easy for you to acquire a consistent supply of your medications, whether or not your insurance provider offers prescription coverage.

Our customers never face surprise charges, as we have no hidden fees. Our pricing model is simple and transparent. Eligible patients pay a one-time enrollment fee of $35 and a fixed monthly service fee of just $80–$110, depending on the number of medications they receive:

  • 1 Medication (Brilinta only) – $80 per month
  • 2 Medications (Brilinta + 1 other) – $90 per month
  • 3 Medications (Brilinta + 2 others) – $100 per month
  • 4+ Medications – $110 per month

The Rx Advocates is not a Brilinta coupon supplier, discount card, or insurance plan. We aid people in acquiring their monthly medications at affordable prices. Our pricing stays consistent, even if the retail price of your medication fluctuates, and because our service is month to month, you may cancel at any time if you’re unhappy with it. We believe everybody deserves access to proper healthcare and prescription drugs, and we want to help every American gain maximum savings on their Brilinta prescriptions and any other prescriptions they need.

The limitations of a Brilinta coupon

There are several reasons why a Brilinta coupon is not a good long-term option for saving money on this medication. Here are few key coupon limitations to consider:

  • Brilinta coupons may be valid only for a limited time, meaning you’ll need to find a new coupon or pay full price once the offer expires, and no coupon can be used past its expiration date.
  • Most coupons cover only a portion of the cost, leaving you with significant out-of-pocket expenses.
  • Brilinta coupons typically cover only a few refills, making it challenging to use them for long-term savings.
  • Brilinta coupons often have a limited scope of use. For example, some are valid only at specific participating pharmacies, causing frustration for those who do not live near one.
  • Due to a copay accumulator attached to your health insurance plan, a coupon might not count toward your out-of-pocket maximum. This means you may have to pay a significant portion of the cost.
  • The savings offered by coupons make little difference when the medication is expensive. For example, if a drug costs $10,000, even a coupon offering 50% off won’t make the medication affordable for the average person.
  • Coupons typically can only be applied to medications prescribed for FDA-approved indications. Those who use prescription medications for other uses may therefore be unable to use a coupon to cut costs.
  • To benefit from coupon savings, people often must physically visit a pharmacy to present the coupon to the pharmacist. This can be difficult for those who are elderly or bedridden.

The Brilinta patient assistance program, which has no expiration date or coverage limitations, can provide more substantial savings than coupons. Contact us today to learn more about how patient assistance programs can help you save on your prescription medications.

Brilinta uses, precautions, alternatives, and other FAQs

What is Brilinta, and what does it treat?

Brilinta, the branded version of ticagrelor, is an oral antiplatelet medication with FDA-approved indications for reducing the risk of cardiovascular events, including myocardial infarction (heart attack) and stroke in adults diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome or with a  history of heart attack. Brilinta also reduces clots in those who have received stents to treat ACS.

Like aspirin, Brilinta prevents platelets from reacting and forming clots. Brilinta and aspirin work in different ways to prevent clot formation; however, they are usually prescribed together. Brilainta should be taken daily with low-dose aspirin, as doses of aspirin greater than 100 mg decrease the effectiveness of Brilinta.

Precautions when using Brilinta

People who use Brilinta should consult frequently with their doctor, as this medication may cause serious adverse effects, such as internal bleeding and allergic reactions. The following is important safety information for those considering taking Brilinta:

  • Do not discontinue Brilinta or decrease your dosage without consulting your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a cardiovascular event.
  • Because Brilinta can cause bleeding, you may need to stop taking it at least five days before scheduled surgery or dental work. Tell your doctors, dentists, and other medical professionals you are taking Brilinta. It’s also best to avoid intense contact sports and other activities with a high risk of injury, and you should be careful when handling sharp objects.
  • If you have been treated with a stent, stopping Brilinta too soon increases your risk of cardiovascular events.
  • Take aspirin and Brilinta exactly as your doctor has prescribed.
  • Inform your doctor if you are taking medications that contain aspirin or other NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen and naproxen.
  • Tell your doctor if you have experienced bleeding in your brain, as Brilinta is contraindicated in such cases.

Alternative medications to Brilinta

Several medications can be used as alternatives to Brilinta for preventing blood clots and managing conditions like acute coronary syndrome. Your healthcare provider will determine the best treatment for you based on your health status, medical history, potential side effects, monthly prescription costs, and other factors. Here are a few alternative medications  to discuss with your doctor:

Brilinta adverse effects

Common adverse effects of Brilinta

Introducing any foreign substance, including medications, into your body presents a risk of adverse effects. Here are a few common adverse effects Brilinta users should expect:

  • Headache
  • Dizziness
  • Back pain
  • Bleeding gums
  • Increased menstrual flow
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Unusual tiredness

Because Brilinta is an antiplatelet drug, users face an increased risk of bleeding and bruising. This adverse effect is one of the most commonly reported. Here are a few tips to reduce this risk when taking Brilinta:

  • Use an electric shaver instead of a razor blade to avoid shaving cuts.
  • Brush your teeth with a soft-bristle toothbrush to protect your gums from bruising and irritation.
  • File your nails to avoid using nail clippers.
  • Exercise extra caution when using sharp knives during cooking.
  • Avoid contact sports to avoid bruising. Try activities like walking, jogging, or table tennis to get enough exercise.
  • Avoid picking at your nose. During winter, use a humidifier to moisten the air and reduce the risk of nosebleeds.
  • Get plenty of rest and include water and healthy foods in your diet to avoid constipation.

Serious adverse effects of Brilinta

Brilinta is a valuable treatment for people diagnosed with ACS. However, it has the potential to cause serious or even life-threatening adverse effects. Seek emergency medical care if you notice any of these serious adverse effects:

  • Internal bleeding, which may manifest as coffee-brown vomit, bright or dark red stools, pink, red, or brown urine, and coughing up blood or dark clots
  • Severe allergic reactions, which may include itching, fast heartbeat, swelling of the face, eyes, lips, tongue, throat, or hands, and difficulty breathing
  • Slow or irregular heartbeat, which may present as dizziness, palpitations, and feeling faint
  • Liver damage, which can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes, abdominal pain, persistent nausea, and vomiting
  • Breathing problems, such as shortness of breath during regular activities
