About This Medication
# Bausch Health Patient Assistance Program Guide: How to Get Migranal at Low or No Cost ## About This Program The **Bausch Health Patient Assistance Program** provides free or low-cost Migranal (dihydroergotamine mesylate) to eligible patients who cannot afford their medication. Migranal is a prescription medication used to treat acute migraine headaches. If you have limited insurance coverage or no insurance at all, this program may help you access the medication you need without financial hardship. ## Who Qualifies You may be eligible for the Bausch Health Patient Assistance Program if you meet all of the following criteria: - You are a legal United States resident - You have a valid prescription from a licensed U.S. healthcare professional for Migranal - You do not have insurance coverage for Migranal, or your insurance no longer covers it - You are being treated as an outpatient (not hospitalized) - You meet the program's income and financial need requirements - You demonstrate qualifying financial need or have limited income **Special consideration for Medicaid patients:** As of October 1, 2025, Bausch Health stopped participating in certain federal programs that help cover medications for Medicaid patients. If your Medicaid plan no longer covers Migranal, you may still qualify for free medication through this patient assistance program. ## Income Eligibility The Bausch Health Patient Assistance Program reviews applications on a case-by-case basis. While specific income thresholds are not publicly listed, the program considers: - Your total annual household income - Your family size - Your out-of-pocket medication costs - Your overall financial need If you are unsure whether your income qualifies, you can still apply at no cost.
