Mental illness shattered your sense of reality. Hallucinations, paranoia, and disorganized thoughts made daily functioning impossible. Your psychiatrist prescribed Zyprexa to stabilize your symptoms, and after weeks of dose adjustments, the medication finally brought clarity back. You could think straight again, hold conversations, and plan for the future. Then you saw what staying stable would cost each month.
The team at The Rx Advocates connects people with serious mental illness to Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) that supply Zyprexa based on what you earn rather than pharmacy prices.
What is the Zyprexa Patient Assistance Program?
Drug companies operate financial assistance for patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder who qualify based on income. People who get approved receive Zyprexa at substantially lower costs, ensuring psychiatric medications don’t get discontinued because of affordability problems.
You provide your prescription and proof of household earnings. Our staff takes over from there: building your application, working with your psychiatrist’s office, submitting to the manufacturer, and monitoring approval. Zyprexa ships to your address monthly once you’re in the program.
We work as an advocacy service connecting psychiatric patients nationwide with manufacturer programs that price medications according to financial need instead of retail rates.
How to Qualify
Programs use multiple criteria when evaluating applications. People might qualify if they meet one of the following:
- Singles earning under $40,000 yearly
- Couples with combined income below $60,000 annually
- Families of three or more making less than $100,000 per year
- Valid prescription from licensed psychiatrist or physician
Income limits alone don’t determine acceptance. Manufacturers review other specific requirements unique to their programs. Get in touch with us for an evaluation of your situation.
Cost of Zyprexa
with The Rx Advocates
The monthly service fee depends on the number of medications you take. For example:
$80 / Month
$90 / Month
$100 / Month
$110 / Month
NOTE: In addition to our monthly service fee, we charge a one-time enrollment fee of $35.
Our service is month-to-month, so if you’re not happy with it, you may cancel at any time.
The Rx Advocates Can Help Reduce Zyprexa Costs
We charge one set monthly fee based on total prescription count. This amount stays the same even if Zyprexa retail prices rise.
Serious mental illness requires continuous medication, not intermittent treatment. Our service addresses various insurance problems: plans that exclude psychiatric medications, deductibles that never get met, or jobs that provide no health benefits.
Coupons aren’t our focus. We handle enrollment in pharmaceutical programs that deliver consistent medication access at costs dramatically lower than what drugstores charge.

Why Patient Assistance Programs Beat Coupons
Coupons help briefly. Assistance programs address long-term costs.
Coupon limitations
- Pharmacy restrictions: Accepted only at select stores
- Copay accumulators: Savings don’t count toward deductibles
- Expiration dates: Become worthless quickly
- Coverage gaps: Inadequate for expensive antipsychotics
- Redemption requirements: Must present physically at counter
PAP advantages
- Substantial savings: Reductions exceeding coupon values
- Reliable access: Medication arrives without searching
- Predictable costs: Fees remain stable despite price changes
- Convenient delivery: Shipped to your home
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
We’ve compiled answers to some of the most common questions about Zyprexa and patient assistance programs.
With The Rx Advocates, patients pay a fixed monthly service fee, which depends on the number of medications covered.
- 1 Medication (Zyprexa only) – $80 per month
- 2 Medications (Zyprexa + 1 other) – $90 per month
- 3 Medications (Zyprexa + 2 others) – $100 per month
- 4+ Medications – $110 per month
Importantly, there are no hidden fees, and prices remain consistent even if retail costs fluctuate.
Without a patient assistance program, Zyprexa costs more than many psychiatric patients can afford long-term. What you pay depends on factors outside your control.
Several variables shape your final cost:
- Dosage: Prescribed strength and quantity
- Location: Regional pricing differences
- Pharmacy: Different retailers set different prices
- Insurance Coverage: Plan benefits determine what you pay
Two patients taking identical Zyprexa prescriptions can face vastly different costs based on their pharmacy, location, and insurance coverage.
Most patients meet the requirements when annual household income stays below $40k for individuals, $60k for couples, or $100k for larger families. Since manufacturer requirements can differ, The Rx Advocates assess each case individually to determine eligibility.
The Rx Advocates manage enrollment and monthly refills, coordinating all necessary paperwork with your prescribing physician, submitting completed applications to manufacturers, and arranging medication deliveries to prevent treatment interruptions.
About Zyprexa
Zyprexa contains olanzapine, an atypical antipsychotic used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in adults.
How it works: Olanzapine affects dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain, helping reduce hallucinations, delusions, and mood instability associated with serious mental illness.
Administration: Taken as tablets once daily, with or without food. Your psychiatrist will adjust dosing based on symptom response. Also available as orally disintegrating tablets and injection forms.
Side effects:
- Common: Weight gain, drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, dizziness
- Serious: High blood sugar, diabetes, high cholesterol, movement disorders, neuroleptic malignant syndrome
Important warnings: Zyprexa can cause significant weight gain and metabolic changes. Requires regular monitoring of blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Elderly patients with dementia have increased risk of death when taking antipsychotics.

Untreated schizophrenia and bipolar disorder lead to hospitalizations, homelessness, incarceration, and suicide. Stopping Zyprexa because of cost allows symptoms to return, often worse than before. Relapse means losing the stability you worked hard to achieve.
Manufacturers fund these programs for patients managing serious mental illness who struggle with medication costs.
