Xtandi is only available in specialty pharmacies or at your doctor’s office. Specialty pharmacies are similar to traditional pharmacies that you’re used to. However, specialty pharmacies offer additional services for people. These pharmacies typically focus on chronic (long-term) or complex conditions, such as cancer.
Complex conditions typically require more expensive or very complicated treatments. The pharmacists at specialty pharmacies are trained to be experts in helping you understand your insurance coverage for these treatments. The pharmacists can also assist you while you’re using specialty medications, such as by monitoring you for certain side effects.
