Gleostine (
lomustine) is an expensive chemotherapy drug used to treat
brain tumors and Hodgkin’s disease. It works by interfering with the growth of rapidly growing cells like cancer cells. This drug is more popular than comparable drugs. There is currently no generic alternative to Gleostine. It is not covered by Medicare or most insurance plans, but manufacturer and pharmacy coupons can help offset the cost. With the Patient Assistance Program from PAN Foundation, contact the program to see how they can financially help you out.
