Insurance Support
Filling your prescription for ENTYVIO may be a little different from what you are used to
Since ENTYVIO is a biologic medication that can't be picked up at your local pharmacy, there's a process that must take place before you get started.
You need to be approved for coverage
Your health insurance provider must approve your coverage for ENTYVIO.
- Benefits Verification—Your doctor's office will work with your insurance company to determine if ENTYVIO is covered.
- Prior Authorization—Your doctor's office will submit a request to your health insurance company to get approval for you to start treatment with ENTYVIO.

Using a specialty pharmacy
There are 2 ways you can receive ENTYVIO, by intravenous (IV) infusion or self-administered injection under the skin (subcutaneous) with the ENTYVIO Pen. If you’re using the ENTYVIO Pen, your treatment will be shipped to you from a specialty pharmacy, which is a type of pharmacy that specializes in handling more complex medications. Your doctor will walk you through this process and explain the steps you need to take to ensure you receive your treatment on time.
Pay as little as $5 per dose*

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
- Do not receive ENTYVIO ® if you have had an allergic reaction to ENTYVIO or any of its ingredients.
- ENTYVIO may cause serious side effects, including:
- Infusion-related and serious allergic reactions can happen while you are receiving ENTYVIO or several hours after treatment. You may need treatment if you have an allergic reaction.
