Arcutis Cares Patient Assistance Program Patient Guide: How to Get ZORYVE (roflumilast) at Low or No Cost

ZORYVE (roflumilast) cream is a prescription topical treatment approved by the FDA for plaque psoriasis in adults and children 12 years and older, and for atopic dermatitis in adults and children 6 years and older. The Arcutis Cares Patient Assistance Program from Arcutis Biotherapeutics provides this medication at no cost to financially eligible patients who are uninsured, underinsured, or enrolled in Medicare/Medicaid but facing hardship.[1][2][4]

Who Qualifies for Arcutis Cares?

This program helps U.S. residents (including Puerto Rico) who meet these key criteria:

• Prescribed ZORYVE for an FDA-approved use.
• At least 12 years old (some sources note 18+, but official docs confirm 12+).[1][2][3][4]
• Household income at or below 300% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). Proof of income for everyone in your household is required—current tax return preferred.[1][2]
• Insurance status: Uninsured, or have Medicare Part D, Medicaid, or underinsured with high out-of-pocket costs you can't afford.[1][4][7]

Meeting these doesn't guarantee approval—Arcutis reviews each application individually.[1]

About ZORYVE (roflumilast)

ZORYVE is a once-daily non-steroidal cream that targets inflammation inside the skin to relieve itching and redness. It's applied directly to affected areas for:

• Plaque psoriasis: Adults and children 12+.
• Atopic dermatitis (eczema): Adults and children 6+ (check prescribing info for age specifics).[7][8]

Unlike steroids, it has a low risk of skin thinning with long-term use. Always follow your doctor's instructions. Common side effects include diarrhea, nausea, or headache—discuss with your healthcare provider.[7]
