About This Medication

# ZTlido Co-Pay Savings Card: How to Get Affordable Pain Relief ## About This Program The ZTlido Co-Pay Savings Card is a manufacturer-sponsored program designed to help patients afford ZTlido (lidocaine topical system 1.8%), a prescription patch used to relieve nerve pain caused by shingles, also known as postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). This program is not a traditional patient assistance program but rather a co-pay reduction card that works alongside your insurance or as a standalone discount for uninsured patients. ## About ZTlido ZTlido is a topical lidocaine patch indicated for adults suffering from postherpetic neuralgia pain. The medication is applied directly to the skin and can be used up to 3 patches per day (12 hours on, 12 hours off) to deliver continuous 24-hour pain control. For optimal results, ZTlido must be used daily for at least 8 weeks—not as needed—to achieve its full therapeutic effect. There is no generic equivalent for ZTlido, and it cannot be substituted with other lidocaine patches. ## Who Qualifies The ZTlido Co-Pay Savings Card is available to: - **Commercially insured patients**: Even if your insurance doesn't cover ZTlido - **Cash-paying patients**: Uninsured individuals paying out-of-pocket - **Medicare patients**: May be eligible; see insurance requirements below There are no income thresholds or financial eligibility requirements for this co-pay card program.

If you have insurance, the card works as a secondary payer after your primary insurance processes the claim. ## Insurance Requirements ### For Commercially Insured Patients You can use the ZTlido Co-Pay Savings Card whether or not your insurance covers ZTlido. If your insurance does cover the medication: 1. Your pharmacist will submit the claim to your primary insurance first 2. The co-pay card then covers the remaining balance as a secondary payer 3.
