The Prostate Cancer Resource page is intended to provide information on prostate cancer and to streamline and simplify the way those with prostate cancer may find assistance paying for their medications. According to the National Cancer Institute, Prostate Cancer is a cancer that forms in the tissues of the prostate (a gland in the male reproductive system below the bladder and in front of the rectum). Prostate cancer usually occurs in older men. |
Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs) are programs offered by pharmaceutical companies to help those most in need gain access to their medications at no or low cost. Each program has varying financial and insurance guidelines - when in doubt, call the program. To find the specific PAP information for a specific drug click on the list below. You will then be taken to a listing of all the programs available for that medication. NeedyMeds neither promotes nor endorses the therapies listed below nor the supporters of this page. This page is for educational purposes only. | |
