Sometimes, affording prescription medicines can be difficult. That’s why
Merck has created the Patient Assistance Program—to keep affordable
medicines within your reach. This private and confidential program
provides medicine free of charge to eligible individuals, primarily the
uninsured who, without our assistance, could not afford needed Merck
medicines. Individuals who don’t meet the insurance criteria may still
qualify for the Merck Patient Assistance Program if they attest that they
have special circumstances of financial and medical hardship, and their
income meets the program criteria. A single application may provide for
up to one year of medicine free of charge to eligible individuals and an
individual may reapply as many times as needed. For more information,
