How much does Humira cost with insurance?

Eligible commercially insured patients using the Humira Complete Savings Card commonly pay as little as $5 per month, subject to the manufacturer's eligibility rules and annual maximum. Without coverage the reference product's list price runs near $6,900 per month; unbranded adalimumab and low-list biosimilars can be dramatically less. Medicare, Medicaid, and other government beneficiaries are excluded from copay cards and may qualify for the AbbVie patient assistance program instead.

What if my plan forces me onto a Humira biosimilar?

Many NYC plans now prefer a biosimilar. We match your current pen strength and injection interval, enroll you in that biosimilar's own savings program, and send your prescriber's office the switch documentation the plan requires so the therapy is not interrupted.

Which adalimumab biosimilars do you fill?

Humira (reference), Cyltezo (Boehringer Ingelheim), Hadlima (Organon), Hyrimoz (Sandoz), Yusimry (Coherus), Simlandi (Alvotech/Teva), Amjevita (Amgen), and Idacio (Fresenius Kabi), in both citrate-free pen and prefilled syringe formats where the manufacturer offers them.

Do you help with Humira prior authorization?

We identify the requirement the day the prescription arrives and send your prescriber's office the plan criteria, the correct form, and the documentation we hold. Their office submits the authorization; we track it and follow up. We do not submit authorizations ourselves and cannot guarantee approval. Most decisions we see come back in 24-72 hours.

How fast can I get my first Humira fill?

Once the prescription and any required authorization are in place, we typically dispense same day or next business day, with delivery scheduled to keep the refrigerated product in the cold chain from our fridge to your door.

Do you deliver Humira to Brooklyn, Queens, or New Jersey?

Yes. Delivery is free across all five NYC boroughs and northern New Jersey. Refrigerated shipments travel in insulated phase-change packaging and are handed to an adult rather than left at the door.

What conditions is Humira approved for?

Per FDA labeling, adalimumab is approved for rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, plaque psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa, and uveitis, with age and severity criteria that vary by indication. Your prescriber decides whether it is appropriate for you.

Can my rheumatologist or gastroenterologist e-prescribe to you?

Yes. E-prescribe to 79th Street Pharmacy, 215 W 79th Street, New York, NY 10024 (NPI 1992057939) or fax 646-398-7680. We confirm receipt the same business day and start the benefits check immediately.

Can I transfer my Humira prescription from another specialty pharmacy?

Yes. Tell us who currently fills it and we request the remaining refills, re-run your benefits, and re-enroll your savings card so there is no gap in therapy.
