Shire CARES—providing prescription savings and support
Lialda® (mesalamine) has treated more than 100,000 people, many of whom have benefited from our Patient Assistance Program. Now we’re pleased to announce that we’ve enhanced our program with even more offerings—because, at Shire, we believe everyone should have access to the medication that their doctor has chosen for them.
Helping you get the medicine you need
- Job Loss Rx Coverage—Many people are facing unexpected employment challenges. If you lost your job in 2009, we can assist you with the cost of your Lialda prescription
- No Cost—Lialda may be available at no cost if you meet certain income requirements
- Shared Cost—It may be possible for Shire to minimize your out-of-pocket expenses for Lialda
Let us help you determine which program best fits your needs. Call a care partner today to learn more about eligibility and how to apply.
