Lyumjev short acting now not covered by insurance

My new pharmacy coverage is no longer covering my Lyumjev insulin. Through GoodRx it’s running $300/vial. Any suggestions?

Can you get your dr to appeal for coverage? I’ve done that a couple times when my preferred insulin wasn’t covered.

Check the formulary, mine replaced Lyumjev with Fiasp. Fiasp works equally fast or better than Lyumjev for me.

I had the opposite problem and Lyumjev is much better than Fiasp for me.

I don’t think the insulin matters, we just want to make it work so each time we are forced to swap we get better.

Toast worked for about 45 days, the stopped being any different than Novolog. Lyumjev has worked fine since it was released for me.

We have done that too. However, for Lyumjev, we used manufacturers coupons to get it ar a reasonable price, $35 per month because not covered.

As @Michel stated, Lilly does have a mfr coupon program here to bring down the cost for most patients to as low as $35 per Rx. Not sure if this program is right for you or not, but it’s worth exploring.
