Feedback on Kisunla

Hi. I am 75 F newly diagnosed ES Alz and leaning to try Kisunla. I have Medicare and BSBC but having problems getting a breakout of what is covered and what I must pay $ monthly. Id be so appreciative regarding on what you pay for Kisunla out of pocket. And any feedback on your or your LO has on Kisunla.

    I'm afraid I can't help directly with any of your questions directly. I've been on Leqembi since June 2024, with zippo side effects. Leqembi is the other anti-amyloid drug now available, besides Kisunla. The two drugs have similar effects at slowing the cognitive decline associated with AD, and the same risks with ARIA.

    I also have BCBS, but I'm not (yet) old enough for Medicare, so I'm unfamiliar with how much Medicare / BCBS will cover versus out of pocket.
