Free paxlovid by mail
Paxlovid is a prescription medication used to treat mild to moderate COVID-19 in adults and children who are at high risk for severe illness. While it's not possible to obtain Paxlovid for free by mail without a prescription, there are some options to consider:
- Prescription and insurance coverage: If you have a prescription from a healthcare provider and insurance coverage, you can fill the prescription at a participating pharmacy or through a mail-order pharmacy. Check with your insurance provider to see if they cover Paxlovid and what the copay or coinsurance may be.
- Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs): Some pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer (the manufacturer of Paxlovid), offer PAPs that provide free or discounted medications to eligible patients who are uninsured or underinsured. You can contact Pfizer's PAP department at (888) 229-3966 or visit their website to learn more.
- Government programs: The US government has established programs to provide free COVID-19 treatments, including Paxlovid, to eligible individuals. For example:
- COVID-19 Treatment Program: This program, run by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), provides free COVID-19 treatments, including Paxlovid, to eligible individuals who are uninsured or underinsured. You can contact the program at (855) 793-7472 or visit their website to learn more.
- Medicaid and Medicare: If you have Medicaid or Medicare coverage, you may be eligible for free or reduced-cost Paxlovid treatment. Contact your state Medicaid office or Medicare to learn more.
- Non-profit organizations: Some non-profit organizations, such as the National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics (NAFC), offer free or low-cost healthcare services, including prescription medications, to eligible individuals. You can visit their website to find a clinic near you.
Remember to always consult with a healthcare provider before seeking treatment for COVID-19, as they can help determine the best course of treatment for your specific situation.
