Prescription Drugs & You:

Understanding Your Coverage

Medications are an important part of managing IgA Nephropathy. Not only do they help ease symptoms, they also may slow the loss of kidney function. If you’re like many other people with IgA Nephropathy, you likely take several medications – more if you have other health conditions.

But navigating your prescription drug coverage isn’t always easy. And the last thing you need on top of the worries that come with having IgA Nephropathy is the maze that accessing needed medications and figuring out how to pay them, can quickly become. It doesn’t have to be that way. As with anything that seems overwhelming, try to break it into smaller pieces. A good first step is to learn about the basics of your plan — what’s covered, what’s not and when it renews.
