About This Medication

# Myovant Sciences Patient Assistance Program Patient Guide: How to Get Ryeqo at Low or No Cost Ryeqo (relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1.0 mg, norethisterone acetate 0.5 mg) is a prescription medication used to treat certain conditions in women, and the **Myovant Sciences Patient Assistance Program** helps eligible uninsured or underinsured patients get it at no cost if they face financial hardship. ## About Ryeqo Ryeqo combines **relugolix**, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist, with **estradiol** (a form of estrogen) and **norethisterone acetate** (a progestin). This once-daily oral tablet is prescribed for women to manage heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids or moderate to severe pain related to endometriosis. It works by lowering certain hormone levels to reduce symptoms, but it should only be used under a doctor's supervision due to potential side effects like bone density loss, hot flashes, or mood changes. Always discuss risks and benefits with your healthcare provider. ## Who Qualifies for the Program? The program targets **uninsured or underinsured patients experiencing financial hardship**. While specific income thresholds (like Federal Poverty Level percentages) are not publicly detailed, eligibility focuses on those who cannot afford Ryeqo despite income efforts. U.S. residents (including territories) prescribed Ryeqo for an FDA-approved use qualify if they meet criteria assessed by Myovant Sciences. Government-insured patients (e.g., Medicare, Medicaid) may receive free product for the full coverage year if eligible, with Myovant notifying their plans. ## Income Eligibility Breakdown Exact income limits aren't fixed publicly; eligibility is determined case-by-case via phone inquiry.
