Azor Rx Direct & Cost Savings Card Patient Guide: How to Get Azor at Low or No Cost

Azor (amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil) is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. The Azor Rx Direct & Cost Savings Card, offered by Daiichi Sankyo, helps eligible patients with commercial insurance pay as little as $5 per month through a pre-activated savings card[1][2].

About Azor

Azor combines two active ingredients: amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker) and olmesartan medoxomil (an angiotensin receptor blocker, or ARB). Together, they relax blood vessels to lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems. It's typically prescribed when one medication alone isn't enough. Common doses are 5/20 mg, 5/40 mg, 10/20 mg, or 10/40 mg (amlodipine/olmesartan). Always take as directed by your doctor, usually once daily with or without food[1].

Important safety notes: Tell your doctor if you're allergic to ingredients in Azor or related drugs like Benicar. Inform them of conditions like liver/kidney disease, heart failure, or pregnancy (Azor can harm an unborn baby). It may interact with other medications, causing serious side effects. Report side effects to Cosette Pharmaceuticals at 1-800-922-1038 or FDA at 1-800-332-1088[1].

Who Qualifies?

This program is a savings card for commercially insured patients (private insurance, not government programs). Key eligibility:

• U.S. or Puerto Rico resident.
• Valid prescription for Azor.
• Commercial prescription insurance (not Medicare, Medicaid, or similar).
• Not enrolled in state or federal programs prohibiting such savings[1][2].

No income requirements apply, making it accessible regardless of finances, as long as you meet the above[1]. Uninsured or government-insured patients may not qualify but can explore discount cards like WellRx (up to 80% off) or NowPatient options[3][5].

Income Eligibility Breakdown

This program does not use income thresholds. It's based on insurance type and residency, not finances. Here's a simple table:

Insurance Requirements

Commercial insurance required for full benefits (as low as $5/month). The pre-activated card works at most pharmacies for eligible patients. It's not valid with government insurance like Medicare Part D, Medicaid, VA, Tricare, or state programs. If uninsured, savings may be limited; consider pharmacy discount cards instead[1][2][3]. Check your plan details with your insurer.
