Affording RA medication can be really stressful, but there are some good options worth exploring!

Hyrimoz (adalimumab-adaz) is a biosimilar to Humira, meaning it works in the same way by blocking TNF to reduce inflammation. It's given the same way β€” a subcutaneous injection every other week. Since biosimilars are typically less expensive than the original brand-name drug, it may be worth asking your rheumatologist if switching to Hyrimoz is right for you. Beyond switching medications, there are also financial assistance programs that could help make Humira itself more affordable:

- AbbVie Patient Assistance Program β€” AbbVie (Humira's maker) offers a Patient Assistance Program (PAP) for those who qualify
- Humira Complete Savings Card β€” a copay savings card for eligible patients on private insurance
- NeedyMeds β€” a nonprofit search tool to find drug savings programs
- Benefits CheckUp β€” connects people to copay assistance programs

Bringing up affordability concerns directly with your rheumatologist is always a great first step β€” they may know of additional options or alternatives that suit your treatment needs.
