Reim-Drugs

Click on the names of the list of cancer drugs below to learn more about them, how they work, and what Patient Assistance Programs are available. “About the Drug” provides a short description in easy-to-understand terms of how the drug works and what the drug is approved to treat. Under “Patient Assistance Program,” we outline programs drug manufacturers have put in place to ensure no patient is unable to get needed medication. Some companies offer free prescriptions to patients who meet eligibility criteria, and others help with drug copayments. Although we have listed the approved indications for each drug, often a drug may be used for an off-label use, which may not be covered by a Patient Assistance Program. Please note that many cancer drugs are available in generic form and are no longer supported by the original manufacturer. These drugs are not included in this guide.
