Evarrest

Evarrest is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold.

  1. Ask your pharmacy for Evarrest’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.

We didn’t find a savings card or cash price from Evarrest’s maker. Ask the pharmacy for Evarrest’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Evarrest itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Evarrest is the only choice; ask the pharmacy for its cash price, or your plan what it charges.

Regular genericNot sold

Evarrest is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Evarrest’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

EVARREST® is a fibrin sealant patch indicated for use with manual compression as an adjunct to hemostasis in adult patients undergoing surgery, when control of bleeding by conventional surgical techniques (such as suture, ligature, and cautery) is ineffective or impractical.

Limitations for Use:

  • Cannot be used in place of sutures or other forms of mechanical ligation in the treatment of major arterial or venous bleeding.
  • Not for use in children under one month of age
  • Laparoscopic and other minimally invasive surgeries where manual compression would be difficult to achieve.
