Repatha, side effects and what comes next?

Hmmmm. I got the Inclisiran prescription in summer of 2024. I had Medicare parts A and B and a Supplemental and AARP Medicare for meds, not an advantage plan. What Renown Medical in Reno told me is that Medicare would not cover Inclisiran UNTIL AFTER I had first tried Repatha. Note that this was not recent and that Renown, not Medicare told me what Medicare would pay,

BTW imo a person would be wise to consider whether Inclisiran is gene therapy and whether they think it might be making any permament changes to the body. I can’t figure out either how it stays in the intended place in the body or how it leaves the body when the patient wants to stop. I wonder what Mr. Kennedy thinks of siRNAs?

@tatiana987 The drug company’s website has good information that may answer your questions about how inclisiran (Leqvio) works. https://www.leqviohcp.com/mechanism-of-action
