“Emergency Use Authorization” allows some treatments to forego certain steps in the approval process during a public health crisis to treat the public more quickly.
Vaccines and testing
If you were vaccinated at a retail pharmacy, you can easily view your vaccination status in the Express Scripts® Pharmacy mobile app.
If you were vaccinated at a mass vaccination site and no claim was filed with Express Scripts, you will need to use your paper vaccination card. You can also check with your local state health registry for verification information.
Vaccines and testing
Please be sure to mention if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breastfeeding a child. You should also tell your pharmacist about any allergies you may have, as well as if you have liver or kidney disease or any serious illness.
Vaccines and testing
Some of the most common vaccinations like flu vaccines are covered through your prescription plan. Check with your plan sponsor about specific coverage and copayment information.
If flu vaccines are covered, you and all other members covered by your plan can go to a local participating pharmacy to get the flu shot. Please note, every state has specific regulations regarding age restrictions, which vaccines can be administered by a certified pharmacist, and if a prescription is required.
Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that in the 2018-19 flu season, only about 45% of adults received their flu shot. This year, more than ever, we encourage as many Americans as possible to get the flu vaccine – even those who haven’t been vaccinated in the past – to help in the fight against COVID-19. It’s especially important for pregnant women, older adults, and people with chronic health conditions to get the flu vaccine not just this year, but every year.
Vaccines and testing
Order from Express Scripts® Pharmacy. Log in or register to place an order. Please keep in mind, in the short-term, there will be limited supplies and tests may take up to 2 weeks to arrive. We're working to improve our supply and turnaround time.
Vaccines and testing
It’s recommended to take Paxlovid as soon as possible after diagnosis and within five days of the onset of symptoms.
Vaccines and testing
COVID-19 vaccines are covered through the pharmacy benefit for most plans. Check with your plan sponsor about specific coverage and copayment information.
If COVID-19 vaccines are covered, you and all other members covered by your plan can go to a local participating pharmacy to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Please note, every state has specific regulations regarding age restrictions, which vaccines can be administered by a certified pharmacist, and if a prescription is required.
Vaccines and testing
Most at-home COVID-19 tests use a gentle self-collected anterior nasal swab sample to determine a positive or negative COVID-19 result. The swab is swirled in a chemical solution and applied to a test strip. Follow the specific instructions on your test for accurate results. You can also learn more on our blog.
Vaccines and testing
Paxlovid may be used to treat mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adults and children 12 years or older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40kg). These individuals must be at risk for severe COVID-19 and have recently tested positive for the virus.
Vaccines and testing
Pfizer’s Paxlovid is a medication for those with mild to moderate COVID-19 who have a higher risk of developing severe COVID-19. It can reduce your symptoms and help you avoid going to the hospital.
Vaccines and testing
Immunizations, more commonly referred to as vaccines, help protect you, your family and friends, and the community from contracting and spreading vaccine-preventable diseases like seasonal flu, whooping cough, measles, shingles, pneumonia, and COVID-19. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we vaccinate not only to protect ourselves and our children from seasonal illnesses like the flu, we vaccinate to protect our future because vaccinations are one of the best ways to put an end to the serious side effects of certain diseases. Additionally, COVID-19 vaccines are one of many important tools to help us take control of this pandemic.
Find out more of what the CDC has to say about the importance of vaccines at www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vac-gen/vaxwithme.html.
Vaccines and testing
Due to high demand, it may take up to 2 weeks to receive your tests.
Vaccines and testing
If your plan covers Paxlovid, you may be able to get it prescribed by a pharmacist. If not, ask the pharmacy about your payment options.
Vaccines and testing
At this time, the answer is unclear. Viruses tend to mutate over time, plus we do not yet completely understand how long vaccinations may provide protection from COVID-19 infection. This is a matter that will continue to be studied by the medical and scientific community.
Vaccines and testing
Possible Paxlovid side effects include:
- Allergic reactions (hives, throat tightness, trouble swallowing, rash)
- Liver problems (jaundice, dark urine, pale stool, itchy stomach)
- Resistance to HIV medication
Less common Paxlovid side effects may include:
- Altered taste
- Diarrhea
- High blood pressure
- Muscle aches
- Abdominal pain
- Nausea
Contact your healthcare provider if you have any side effects that bother you or do not go away. You can report any side effects to the FDA online or by calling 1.800.FDA.1088.
If you can also contact Pfizer directly, either online or by calling 1.800.438.1985.
