How do you pay?

How to pay the least

Cash price

$3,900+ for 30 tablets

Pharmacies pay about this for Triumeq; you’d pay more.

  1. Ask your pharmacy for Triumeq’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.
  2. Triumeq’s savings card works only with insurance from a job or one you bought.

Free from the maker, if you qualify ViiV Healthcare Patient Assistance Program (PAP). Patients whose income exceeds program eligibility maximum will be provided the opportunity to demonstrate that their eligible medical expenses bring them within the income eligibility criteria (please contact program for details). Or call 1-844-588-3288.

Maker’s card or discount card?

A discount card like GoodRx lowers the pharmacy’s cash price, but for a brand-name drug that price often stays high. Compare it with the maker’s card above. You can usually use one or the other on a fill, not both.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Triumeq itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Triumeq is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD are a combination of dolutegravir (integrase strand transfer inhibitor [INSTI]), abacavir, and lamivudine (both nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors) indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and in pediatric patients aged at least 3 months and weighing at least 6 kg.

Limitations of Use:

TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD alone are not recommended in patients with resistance-associated integrase substitutions or clinically suspected INSTI resistance because the dose of dolutegravir in TRIUMEQ and TRIUMEQ PD is insufficient in these subpopulations. See the dolutegravir prescribing information.
