Patients who sign up with us save hundreds of dollars monthly on their medications, without any hidden fees or extra charges. We charge a monthly service fee between $80-$110, depending on the number of medications required, and this is the maximum amount patients will ever pay.

The limitations of using a Restasis coupon

While Restasis coupons can help patients save money on the cost of their medication, there are some disadvantages to using them. One major drawback is that coupons are often only available for a limited time or can have restrictions, such as being valid only for a certain number of refills. As a result, patients may have to constantly search for new coupons or pay full price once their current coupon expires.

Additionally, Restasis coupons may only sometimes provide the best possible price for the medication. Sometimes, patients find a better deal through a pharmacy discount program or a generic medication version.

Another potential drawback to using a Restasis coupon is that not all pharmacies may accept them. This limitation can be particularly problematic for patients who live in rural areas or who do not have access to a wide range of pharmacies.

Finally, it’s important to note that using a coupon may not be the best option for all patients. In some cases, patients may be better off working directly with their healthcare provider or pharmacy to find ways to reduce the cost of their medication. This may include exploring other treatment options or switching to a different medication that is more affordable.

Restasis Prescription Discounts:
Frequently Asked Questions

Restasis (Cyclosporine) is a topical eye medication used to treat keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dryness of the eye due to low tear production).

The usual dosage is one drop into each eye twice daily. Restasis usually starts to increase tear production in 3-6 months, but the results vary from person to person. 

Restasis should not be used if patients are allergic to any of the ingredients. Patients should check with their doctor on all the ingredients of this medication before using it.

Remove contact lenses before applying Restasis and wait at least 15 minutes before placing them back into the eye.

Do not touch the tip of the dropper vials to the eyeball or area around the eyes.

The Rx Advocates do not offer coupons but we would like to explain how coupons work. Many patients will search the internet in the hope of finding a way to pay less for their prescription medication. Most prescription medications are very expensive, and most people will not be able to obtain their medication without a considerable savings coupon. Sometimes the savings that coupons can offer will provide a way for people to purchase their prescription medication.

There are times that even with a coupon; patients are left spending a large amount of money for their medication.

Other names for Prescription Coupons are:

  • Copay cards
  • Copay coupons
  • Copay assistance programs
  • Pharmacy coupons 

These coupons represent a program that has been funded by the pharmaceutical company to help people spend less on their prescription medication. There are savings, however these savings are often very limited, and people are still paying too much on their medications. One limitation of those coupons is that they are usually for a limited time only. They will help patients get started at a lower cost but the savings do not last long. Many times coupons only pay for the first month but not subsequent months. 

Prescription discount cards enable people to purchase their prescription medications at a lower cost. These discount cards are especially helpful for people who pay cash for their monthly prescription. Prescription discount cards do not cost anything and they are accessible to people with or without health insurance.

There are various savings programs that negotiate their drug discounts on medications like Restasis. This makes it possible for patients to access those lower prices through prescription discount cards.
