Support for your Patients

Amgen By Your Side is a support program for patients prescribed TEPEZZA. The Amgen By Your Side team partners with your patient to provide non-medical personalized support as they start and continue treatment as you prescribe. 

After your patient has enrolled, we will pair them with a dedicated Patient Access Liaison (PAL). Our mission is to connect, coordinate, and champion your patient at the most important steps along the way: 

connect

CONNECT: Your patient will be connected to one person dedicated to partnering with them throughout their treatment experience

coordinate

COORDINATE: Your patient will receive educational support on insurance, financial assistance options, important appointment-related information, and more

champion

CHAMPION: Your patient’s dedicated partner will strive to empower them to be confident self-advocates committed to maintaining their treatment goals 

What Amgen By Your Side can do to support your patients: 

  • Educate patients on the results of their benefits investigation and review their insurance coverage
  • Help patients understand potential out-of-pocket costs and financial assistance options
  • Educate you and your staff about insurance processes, including specific payor requirements and examples
  • Provide education to you and your staff about product coding and billing
  • Provide site of care options for you and your patients, if needed
  • Share additional resources that may be helpful as your patient gets started

Amgen believes patients should pay the lowest amount possible

Paying for treatment shouldn’t get in the way of health. That’s why the Amgen By Your Side team is diligent in exploring all options to help your patients* 

co-pay

Patients with commercial insurance may be eligible for a $0 co-pay for the cost of the medication and the infusion administration through our Amgen Commercial Co-Pay Program.*

*Subject to terms and conditions.

Does your patient have commercial insurance?
They may qualify for $0 co-pay for both the cost of the medication and the intravenous infusion

Does your patient have government insurance, like Medicare?
Independent foundation support might be an option†

Who can help educate your patients on the insurance approval process?
Once your treatment plan is set in place, the Patient Access Liaison can help by talking with your patient about the insurance approval process and potential out-of-pocket treatment costs

Is your patient uninsured?
Contact the Amgen By Your Side team at 1-833-5-TEPEZZA (1-833-583-7399) to discuss support options

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Infusion Reactions: TEPEZZA may cause infusion reactions. Infusion reactions have been reported in approximately 4% of patients treated with TEPEZZA. Reported infusion reactions have usually been mild or moderate in severity. Signs and symptoms may include transient increases in blood pressure, feeling hot, tachycardia, dyspnea, headache, and muscular pain. Infusion reactions may occur during an infusion or within 1.5 hours after an infusion. In patients who experience an infusion reaction, consideration should be given to premedicating with an antihistamine, antipyretic, or corticosteroid and/or administering all subsequent infusions at a slower infusion rate.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease: TEPEZZA may cause an exacerbation of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD has been reported in some patients without a prior diagnosis of IBD. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of IBD. If IBD exacerbation is suspected, discontinue use of TEPEZZA.

Hyperglycemia: Increased blood glucose or hyperglycemia may occur in patients treated with TEPEZZA. In clinical trials, 10% of patients (two-thirds of whom had preexisting diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance) experienced hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemic events should be controlled with medications for glycemic control, if necessary. Assess patients for elevated blood glucose and symptoms of hyperglycemia prior to infusion and continue to monitor while on treatment with TEPEZZA. Ensure patients with hyperglycemia or preexisting diabetes are under appropriate glycemic control before and while receiving TEPEZZA.

Hearing Impairment Including Hearing Loss: TEPEZZA may cause severe hearing impairment including hearing loss, which in some cases may be permanent. Assess patients’ hearing before, during, and after treatment with TEPEZZA and consider the benefit-risk of treatment with patients.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥5% and greater than placebo) are muscle spasm, nausea, alopecia, diarrhea, fatigue, hyperglycemia, hearing impairment, dysgeusia, headache, dry skin, ear discomfort, weight decreased, nail disorders, and menstrual disorders.

INDICATION

TEPEZZA is indicated for the treatment of Thyroid Eye Disease regardless of Thyroid Eye Disease activity or duration.
