Coverage and prior authorization
Newer insomnia and wakefulness medications often need a prior authorization or step therapy, usually after trying lower-cost generics. Plans may also limit the number of tablets per month. We tell your sleep specialist’s office what the plan needs and tell you your cost before filling.
Questions
Can I drink alcohol with my sleep medication?
Avoid it. Alcohol can add to drowsiness and other risks with many sleep medications. Ask our pharmacists about any other sedating medications you take, too.
How early can I refill a controlled sleep medication?
Federal and New York rules, and your plan, limit early refills of controlled medications. We’ll tell you the earliest date we can fill, and we can’t fill early outside what the law allows.
