Loyalty Cards Many Pharmaceutical Companies offer "Loyalty Cards" on major brand name medications, such as Prevacid, Lipitor, Crestor, Nexium, Effexor, Lunesta, etc. These cards offer extra savings and can be used often alone or in combination with a patient's own insurance drug benefit . The card has few limitations but often exclude Medicare Part D Plan participants due to federal guidelines.
An example of these savings, Is where a patient's primary drug insurance charges a $50 co-pay for the cholesterol lowering medication, Crestor. When the added benefit of a Crestor Loyalty card that co-pay is reduced to $25!
The Patient is required to sign up for these extra savings. It is often difficult to know if a patient's brand name drug has a Loyalty Card Program. Most brand name prescription drugs are either popular products within a competitive class of therapy options or products that are recently launched and requires marketing promotion.
Patient's will not usually find generic versions of branded drugs in a loyalty search, but certain unique versions of a branded drug may exists as it occurs with Venafexadine ER Tablets containing the same active formulation found in Effexor XR Capsules. These unique examples are what the pharmacy profession terms " Branded-Generics".
