Frequently Asked Questions

How can I get free Xarelto?

Through the J&J Patient Assistance Program, whose current quick reference guide sets income at or below 300% of the Federal Poverty Level ($46,950 for one person as its 2026 program limit). Your healthcare provider must submit the application.

Is there a Xarelto copay card?

Yes, commercially insured patients can use the Xarelto savings card to pay as little as $0 per month, with a maximum annual benefit. The card is not valid for government-insured patients.

How does Xarelto compare in cost to Eliquis?
