About This Medication

# My VYVGART Path Patient Guide: How to Get VYVGART at Low or No Cost VYVGART (efgartigimod alfa-fcab) is an FDA-approved infusion treatment for adults with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), a chronic autoimmune neuromuscular disease causing muscle weakness. The **My VYVGART Path** program from **argenx US, Inc.** offers personalized support, including co-pay assistance for eligible patients, helping reduce out-of-pocket costs for the drug and administration up to **$25,000 per calendar year**[1][2][6]. ## About VYVGART VYVGART targets the underlying cause of gMG by reducing harmful antibodies that attack muscle receptors, leading to improved muscle strength. Administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion once weekly for 4 weeks per cycle, it's typically given in a doctor's office or infusion center. Clinical data shows many patients experience symptom relief within weeks[1][10]. Always consult your doctor to see if VYVGART is right for you. ## Who Qualifies for My VYVGART Path? **My VYVGART Path** provides comprehensive support, including a dedicated Nurse Case Manager to navigate insurance, prior authorizations, and affordability.
