Jardiance is a medication that is prescribed to people 18 years and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It lowers blood sugar and reduces the risk of cardiovascular death. Alongside diet and exercise, it has been shown to effectively improve the blood sugar of adults.

Though many people can take Jardiance, it is not for everyone. Adults with type 1 diabetes, people with severe kidney disease, and if someone currently experiencing diabetic ketoacidosis should not take Jardiance. It is not approved for children under the age of 18.

Jardiance has been shown to reduce A1C levels, lower fasting blood sugar levels, and helps some patients lose weight.

There is currently no generic option for Jardiance on the market, but there are several different brand name prescription medications that are FDA approved and help lower blood sugar in a similar way. They include:

Farxiga (dapagliflozin)

Invokana (canagliflozin)

Steglatro (ertugliflozin)

Rx Help Hub does not offer Jardiance coupons, but in order to understand what drug coupons are let us explain.

Oftentimes, when a patient is prescribed a medication, they go searching for a coupon to save. This makes sense, as name-brand medications are often expensive. Sometimes though, the coupons only save a little on the actual price, still costing the patient hundreds of dollars, out of their pocket.

Jardiance coupons are no exception. Though they save a little on the cost, the patient is still required to pay a significant amount of money each month for their medication.

Prescription drug coupons go by many different names including:

Copay Cards

Copay Coupons

Copay Assistance Programs

Pharma Coupons

Prescription drug coupons are programs funded by pharmaceutical manufacturers that help patients out by lowering the out-of-pocket cost.

Though these coupons have pros, such as lower costs for the prescription, they also have several disadvantages to them such as:

Limited time to use them

Not all people can use them, based on their insurance

They are a short-term solution for vital medication

Prescription discount cards help provide lower costs for medication to individuals who pay for their prescriptions in cash. These cards do not cost anything and can be used with or without health insurance.

These cards negotiate lower prices with the pharmacies, allowing patients to purchase their medication, like Jardiance, for a lower out-of-pocket cost.

A copay assistance program or copay coupon is a coupon that lowers the cost of medication for the patient. They are savings offered directly from the drug manufacturing companies to help offset the cost of the medication. They help the patient to afford the medication they are in need of. Oftentimes, these copay coupons only cover brand name medication, with no generic equivalent.

There are restrictions for copay coupons. This includes:

Having commercial or private insurance

The patient cannot be covered by government health insurance like Medicare or Medicaid

In some states, a patient cannot use a copay coupon on name-brand drugs with a generic equivalent
