About This Medication

Horizon Patient Assistance Program Guide: How to Get Vimovo at Low or No Cost

About This Program

The Horizon Patient Assistance Program helps eligible patients access Vimovo (naproxen/esomeprazole) at no cost or reduced cost when they cannot afford their medication. Vimovo is a prescription combination medication that contains naproxen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and esomeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor that helps protect the stomach from NSAID-related ulcers. This program is administered by Horizon Therapeutics through RxHope, a patient assistance organization.

Who Qualifies for This Program

To be eligible for the Horizon Patient Assistance Program for Vimovo, you must meet ALL of the following requirements:

Income Requirements Your household income must be at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). The Federal Poverty Level changes annually and varies based on household size. For example, in 2026, 200% of the FPL for a single individual is approximately $28,860 per year, while for a family of four it is approximately $59,400 per year. Your actual income threshold depends on your household size.

Insurance Requirements You must not have prescription insurance coverage for Vimovo. This includes:

  • Private insurance plans
  • Medicaid
  • Medicare Part D
  • State assistance programs for medications

If you have Medicare Part D, you may still be eligible if Vimovo is not covered by your specific plan.

Residency and Documentation

  • You must be a U.S. resident with a valid Social Security Number
  • You must provide documentation of your household income
