Frequently Asked Questions
What is LEROCHOL?
LEROCHOL is an injectable prescription medicine, used along with diet and exercise, that helps reduce LDL-C (bad cholesterol) in adults with high blood cholesterol levels called hypercholesterolemia, including HeFH.
How do I take LEROCHOL?
LEROCHOL is a once-monthly injection that’s specifically designed to fit into your life. Because it’s self-administered, you don’t need to go into your doctor’s office to receive your treatment—you can take it wherever is best for you. For step-by-step instructions for taking LEROCHOL, you can use the Instructions for Use Reference Guide.
Does LEROCHOL need to be refrigerated?
No, LEROCHOL does not need refrigeration and can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 months, so you don’t have to worry about safely transporting your medication if you’re traveling or on-the-go. If medication has not been refrigerated after 3 months, discard LEROCHOL.
What makes LEROCHOL different?
Not only does LEROCHOL help lower LDL-C to where it needs to be, it also provides conveniences, such as stability at room temperature and once-monthly dosing, which are designed to help patients stay on treatment.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss your dose by less than 7 days, take your LEROCHOL as soon as possible and stay on track with your original monthly dosing schedule.
If you miss your dose by more than 7 days, take your LEROCHOL as soon as possible and start a new monthly dosing schedule based on the new date.
Can I get LEROCHOL if I don’t have insurance or if it’s not covered by my insurance plan?
The LEROCHOL Direct™ Program is available to those who may or may not have insurance coverage. Ask your doctor to submit your LEROCHOL prescription to HealthDyne Pharmacy. You can learn more about the LEROCHOL Cash-Pay Program* here.
Can I get LEROCHOL at my local pharmacy?
LEROCHOL is currently available only through LEROCHOL Direct™. Your physician can submit the prescription to them for fulfillment. Please note, some insurance companies may not cover it at this time.
