Why does Mesalamine Er (Apriso) cost more in one country than the other?
Drug pricing is set separately in each country through different negotiation, regulatory, and distribution systems, so the same medication can legitimately carry different price tags on either side of the border. In this case, our data shows the Canadian price coming in lower — but that isn't true for every drug, so it's worth checking each medication individually rather than assuming.
How much will I pay for Apriso with my insurance?
Your out-of-pocket cost for Apriso with insurance depends on your specific plan's formulary, deductible, and copay structure, so it can vary widely. It's advisable to check with your pharmacist or insurer for the exact amount. In some cases, the cash price for the generic version, potentially with a pharmacy savings program, could be lower than your insurance copay. You can ask your pharmacist to compare the pricing options available to you.
Are there generic alternatives to Apriso?
Yes. Apriso is the brand-name version of the drug mesalamine. Several pharmaceutical companies manufacture generic mesalamine extended-release capsules.
What is Apriso used for?
Apriso is prescribed to adults for the maintenance of remission in ulcerative colitis, a type of inflammatory bowel disease. It helps prevent the return of symptoms like rectal bleeding, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. As an aminosalicylate, its primary action is to reduce inflammation and swelling in the colon.
