Patients with Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) and their families face a variety of challenges every day. The cost of treatment should NOT be one of them. That’s why we created Catalyst Pathways™—a free program that offers personalized support and assistance to adults with LEMS and their families.
The My FIRDAPSE Therapeutic Dose Program is designed to help you achieve prompt and proper treatment of your LEMS symptoms. Once we receive your completed Catalyst Pathways Enrollment Form, including your doctor’s prescription, you should expect to receive your medication in about 7 business days.*
Along with your medicine, the program also provides helpful educational materials and one-on-one titration support through your dedicated Patient Access Liaison, who can help you achieve the right daily dose of FIRDAPSE for you.
If there are delays in verifying your insurance coverage, you may be eligible to receive up to 60 days of free medication under the Catalyst Bridge program.†
To get started, complete the Enrollment Form with your doctor or call 1-833-4-CATALYST (1-833-422-8259) for assistance.
Go to YourCatalystPathways.com for a full list of the support programs available, including financial assistance.
While your insurance coverage is being reviewed, Catalyst Pathways will provide qualifying patients with “Bridge” medicine (free medicine to carry eligible patients over the gap between insurance investigation and confirmation of coverage).†
Call 1-833-422-8259 to learn if you qualify for this program.
Available for new adult patients with LEMS who are enrolled in the Catalyst Pathways program, are not currently on amifampridine (3,4-DAP), and have been prescribed FIRDAPSE.
Some restrictions apply.
For patients with commercial insurance, Catalyst Pathways lowers out-of-pocket costs to $0/month.
If you do not have insurance or are denied coverage, Catalyst Pathways provides free medicine to qualifying patients for as long as it’s needed.
If you’re having trouble paying your out-of-pocket costs, Catalyst Pathways can direct you to nonprofit organizations that can help you pay for your medicine.
