# Pfizer RxPathways Patient Guide: How to Get Prempro at Low or No Cost ## About This Program The **Pfizer RxPathways Patient Assistance Program (PAP)** helps eligible patients access Prempro (conjugated estrogens/medroxyprogesterone) for free or at significantly reduced costs. Prempro is a hormone replacement therapy medication used to treat moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes and night sweats) associated with menopause. If you're struggling to afford this medication, this program may be able to help. ## Who Qualifies for Pfizer RxPathways To be eligible for the Pfizer Patient Assistance Program, you must meet ALL of the following criteria: **Insurance Status:** You must be uninsured or publicly insured (such as Medicare or Medicaid). Patients with commercial insurance (insurance through an employer or Federal Employer Plan) are NOT eligible for this program.[2] **Income Level:** Your household income must generally be at or below 400% of the federal poverty level. The program does not publicly disclose specific dollar amounts, as income thresholds vary based on household size and are adjusted annually. **Residency:** You must be a U.S. resident, or reside in Puerto Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands. **Medical Need:** You must have been prescribed Prempro by a healthcare provider for an FDA-approved indication. ## Income Eligibility Breakdown While exact income thresholds are not publicly disclosed, the program uses 400% of the federal poverty level as its guideline. For reference, here are approximate 2026 federal poverty levels (actual thresholds may be higher at 400%): | Household Size | Approximate Federal Poverty Level | Approximate 400% Threshold | |---|---|---| | 1 person | $15,000 | $60,000 | | 2 people | $20,000 | $80,000 | | 3 people | $25,000 | $100,000 | | 4 people | $31,000 | $124,000 | *Note: These are estimates for reference only.
