Frequently asked questions

Is a generic version of Methylene Blue available?
Generic and brand-name pricing for Methylene Blue is broken out in the tables above where both exist in our data. Generic versions are typically the lower-cost option, but availability depends on the specific formulation and dosage.
How much can I expect to pay for Provayblue with health insurance?
Your out-of-pocket cost with insurance depends entirely on your specific plan's coverage terms. It's important to note that Provayblue is often processed as a medical benefit (administered in a clinical setting) rather than a standard pharmacy benefit. You should contact your insurer for details on copays or coinsurance. In some cases, presenting a pharmacy savings coupon at the point of care may result in a lower payment if the facility accepts it.
Is Provayblue covered by Medicare, and what are the costs?
Provayblue is not covered under Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans. Instead, coverage for all Medicare beneficiaries is provided under Medicare Part B, which covers drugs administered in a doctor's office or hospital outpatient setting. Beneficiaries are responsible for the applicable Part B deductible and coinsurance. Patients without Medicare coverage may inquire about using pharmacy savings programs to help manage the cost.
Is a generic version of Provayblue available?
Yes. The active ingredient in Provayblue is methylene blue, which is available as a generic injectable product. Generic methylene blue is manufactured by companies including Akorn and American Regent (the same manufacturer as the brand-name Provayblue). The pricing for the generic is typically similar to the brand. It's important to understand that hospitals and clinics purchase these products directly, and they decide which formulation—brand or generic—to use for patient infusions.
