After initiation of AVANDARYL®, and after dose increases, observe patients carefully for signs and symptoms of heart failure (including excessive, rapid weight gain, dyspnea, and/or edema). If these signs and symptoms develop, the heart failure should be managed according to current standards of care. Furthermore, discontinuation or dose reduction of AVANDARYL must be considered. ● AVANDARYL is not recommended in patients with symptomatic heart failure. Initiation of AVANDARYL in patients with established NYHA Class III or IV heart failure is contraindicated. [See Contraindications (4), Warnings and Precautions (5.1).] 1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE AVANDARYL is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Important Limitations of Use: • Due to its mechanism of action, rosiglitazone is active only in the presence of endogenous insulin. Therefore, AVANDARYL should not be used in patients with type 1 diabetes or for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. • Coadministration of AVANDARYL with insulin is not recommended [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2)]. 2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Therapy with AVANDARYL should be individualized for each patient.

While that part 1 article included the drug list revisions/exclusions, dispensing limits, utilization management changes and general information on pharmacy benefit program updates, this part 2 version contains the more recent coverage additions, utilization management updates and any other updates to the pharmacy program. DRUG LIST CHANGES Based on the availability of new prescription medications and Prime’s National Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee’s review of changes in the pharmaceuticals market, some additions (new to coverage) and/or some coverage tier changes (drugs moved to a lower out-of-pocket payment level) will be made to the Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico (BCBSNM) drug lists. Please note: Revisions (drugs still covered but moved to a higher out-of-pocket payment level) and/or exclusions (drugs no longer covered) were included in the Quarterly Pharmacy Changes Part 1 article. Your patient(s) may ask you about therapeutic or lower cost alternatives if their medication is affected by one of these changes. Changes effective Jan. 1, 2020 are outlined below.

  • 4-Tier Preferred Drug List
    Preferred Drug List State of Nevada Custom PDL 21NVMDCD11268 State of Nevada Custom Drug Benefit Guide Introduction As a member of a health plan that includes outpatient prescription drug coverage, you have access to a wide range of effective and affordable medications. The health plan utilizes a Preferred Drug List (PDL) (also known as a drug formulary) as a tool to guide providers to prescribe clinically sound yet cost-effective drugs. This list was established to give you access to the prescription drugs you need at a reasonable cost. Your out- of-pocket prescription cost is lower when you use preferred medications. Please refer to your Prescription Drug Benefit Rider or Evidence of Coverage for specific pharmacy benefit information. The PDL is a list of FDA-approved generic and brand name medications recommended for use by your health plan. The list is developed and maintained by a Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Committee comprised of actively practicing primary care and specialty physicians, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals. Patient needs, scientific data, drug effectiveness, availability of drug alternatives currently on the PDL and cost are all considerations in selecting "preferred" medications. Due to the number of drugs on the market and the continuous introduction of new drugs, the PDL is a dynamic and routinely updated document screened regularly to ensure that it remains a clinically sound tool for our providers. Reading the Drug Benefit Guide Benefits for Covered Drugs obtained at a Designated Plan Pharmacy are payable according to the applicable benefit tiers described below, subject to your obtaining any required Prior Authorization or meeting any applicable Step Therapy requirement.
