Submit your FABHALTA® (iptacopan) prescription to a designated specialty pharmacy
FABHALTA is dispensed through a specialty pharmacy that ships the medication directly to your patient's door each month and guides your team through the process.
Pro-Tip: When e-prescribing, select Biologics by McKesson or CareMed from your EHR. Any listed location will route the prescription correctly.

You can also submit your Rx through Novartis Patient Support™ by completing a Start Form. Fax to 1-877-443-2242 or submit via CoverMyMeds .
