AstraZeneca AZ&Me Patient Assistance Program (2026)

The following medications are covered by AZ&Me Prescription Savings Program:

AZ&Me stands out among manufacturer patient assistance programs because it covers medications across an unusually broad range of therapeutic areas, from respiratory and cardiovascular drugs to advanced oncology treatments. Symbicort (budesonide/formoterol), one of the most commonly prescribed asthma and COPD inhalers, retails for $150 to $400 per month. Farxiga (dapagliflozin), used for type 2 diabetes, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease, costs approximately $550 per month at retail. For oncology patients, Tagrisso (osimertinib) carries a price tag above $15,000 per month. AZ&Me is also one of the few manufacturer programs that supports patients transitioning between brand and authorized generic alternatives within the AstraZeneca portfolio.

The program's income threshold sits at 400% of the Federal Poverty Level, which translates to roughly $60,240 per year for an individual or $124,800 for a family of four. Unlike many PAPs that only serve completely uninsured patients, AZ&Me has separate tracks for uninsured patients (free medication), Medicare patients without Low-Income Subsidy, and underinsured patients facing high out-of-pocket costs. This tiered structure means more patients can find a pathway to affordable medication. Approved patients typically receive a 90-day supply shipped directly to their home or prescriber's office, eliminating the need to visit a pharmacy for pickup.

When applying, keep in mind that AZ&Me processes applications faster than many competitors, with most decisions arriving within two to four weeks. However, each AstraZeneca medication may have slightly different eligibility criteria within the AZ&Me umbrella, so confirm coverage for your specific drug when you call 1-800-292-6363. Renewals are required periodically (typically every 12 months), and you will need to resubmit income documentation. If you are prescribed multiple AstraZeneca medications, a single application can cover all of them, which saves considerable paperwork compared to programs that require separate applications per drug.
