SGLT2 inhibitor compassionate supply for CKD?

[Winnie Chan]

Hi there,

I am a MCKC pharmacist at St Michael’s Hospital in Toronto.  I am wondering if anyone knows if there is any drug company that would offer compassionate supply of SLGT2 inhibitors for CKD patients.

Thanks,

Winnie

Dapagliflozin also has a patient assistance program.

How it works is they send 3 mo supply to the prescribing doctor’s office. Then you have to write or call them every 3 months to have ongoing supply. I believe the canagliflozin program will mail direct to the patient and you do not need to reapply q3months.

1-800-668-6000 – Monday-Friday (8am to 5pm EST)

Or

Email: customer.relations1@astrazeneca.com

Hi Lori,

FYI.  I just checked with the AstraZeneca Rep, if it’s purely for CKD they won’t cover it.

Thanks,

Winnie
