We’re here to support you during this transition.
Bayer recently announced that Kogenate FS will be discontinued. We want patients and their caregivers to know that we are here to support you during this transition. Keeping the needs of patients and caregivers in mind, Bayer has carefully considered that you will need sufficient time to consider and make decisions about your next treatment. The timing of discontinuation will vary by Kogenate FS vial size. Customer demand may lead to depletion of the larger vial sizes during the fall of 2022. Remaining Kogenate FS vial sizes are anticipated to be available into 2023. It's important to work with your healthcare provider as you consider transitioning products.
Kovaltry and Jivi are available to meet the needs of patients currently taking Kogenate FS. Talk to your healthcare provider about which product might be right for you.

‡Formulary status is believed to be accurate as of January 1, 2022 but cannot be guaranteed. Formulary status for national plans may not reflect plan variation at the local level. Lower co-pay costs do not necessarily reflect a cost advantage in the outcome of the condition treated because there are other variables that affect relative cost. Formulary status does not imply a comparison of efficacy, safety, or dosing.
