Key Takeaways:
- Pylera is a triple-combination antibiotic capsule that is part of the gold-standard quadruple therapy for eradicating H. pylori — the bacterial infection responsible for most peptic ulcers and a significant risk factor for stomach cancer.
- A complete 10-day Pylera course (120 capsules) costs approximately $304.95–$857.96 for the brand at retail, while the generic with coupons is available for approximately $187–$220 (verified April 2026).
- AffordMyPrescriptions provides access to brand Pylera for just $69.95 — dramatically reducing the cost of curing your H. pylori infection.
- A generic version of the combination capsule is available and significantly more affordable, but the brand PAP remains the best option for patients who cannot afford even the discounted generic price.
What is Pylera Prescription Assistance Program?
The Pylera Prescription Assistance Program is a manufacturer-sponsored initiative that provides Pylera at no medication cost to qualifying patients. The program is available to uninsured and underinsured U.S. residents who meet income and residency requirements. If approved, you receive your full treatment course at no cost.
H. pylori is a bacterial infection that silently damages your stomach lining and can cause painful ulcers, chronic gastritis, and even increase your risk of stomach cancer. When your doctor prescribes Pylera as part of quadruple therapy to eliminate this infection, the treatment is curative — 10 days of medication can eradicate the bacteria permanently. But when a 10-day treatment course costs $304+ for the brand, many patients delay the treatment that could cure their ulcers and eliminate their cancer risk.
AffordMyPrescriptions ensures cost never prevents you from curing a treatable infection. For a flat $69.95, our Patient Advocates manage the entire enrollment process for your treatment course.
Pharmacy Price Comparison
- Without assistance, Pylera can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars per month at retail pharmacies. Discount programs offer some relief, but they don't come close to what a Patient Assistance Program provides, if you qualify:
| Pharmacy(With Coupon) | PrIce (30-Day)* | You Save W/ Us |
|---|---|---|
| Walgreens | ~$210.00 | Save ~$140/course |
| CVS Pharmacy | ~$220.00 | Save ~$150/course |
| Walmart | ~$200.00 | Save ~$130/course |
| Costco | ~$195.00 | Save ~$125/course |
| Kroger | ~$187.44 | Save ~$117/course |

Why choose us For Your Pylera Prescription Program?
H. pylori treatment is a race against time — every day the infection persists, it continues to damage your stomach lining and increase your risk of complications. When your doctor prescribes quadruple therapy with Pylera and the pharmacy bill exceeds what you can afford, delaying treatment means more damage, more pain, and more risk.
From the moment you enroll, your advocate takes full ownership of your case. They prepare your application, coordinate with your gastroenterologist or prescriber to gather required medical documentation, and track approval through every stage. Because H. pylori treatment is a finite, time- sensitive course rather than an ongoing medication, your advocate ensures the full 10-day supply is secured without delays or partial fills that could compromise treatment effectiveness.
Our pricing is simple and transparent: $69.95 covers our professional advocacy, application management, and doctor coordination for the treatment course. While the medication itself is provided at no cost through the assistance program, our fee covers the work required to make that access possible. If we’re unable to secure access, you won’t be charged. And if the generic combination capsule at $187 with a coupon would be more practical, our advocates will guide you to the most affordable pathway.

Understanding Pylera:
Pylera (bismuth subcitrate potassium/metronidazole/tetracycline) is a prescription combination capsule used, along with a proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole, to eradicate Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in patients with duodenal ulcers. Each capsule contains three active ingredients: bismuth subcitrate potassium (140 mg), metronidazole (125 mg), and tetracycline (125 mg). The standard regimen is three capsules taken four times daily (with meals and at bedtime) for 10 days.
How It Works:
Pylera uses a quadruple therapy approach to eliminate the stubborn H. pylori bacteria by attacking it from multiple angles. It contains Tetracycline to stop protein production, Metronidazole to damage bacterial DNA, and Bismuth subcitrate potassium to disrupt cell membranes. This combination also protects ulcerated areas, and when used with a proton pump inhibitor, it achieves eradication rates over 90%.
Form and Use:
The treatment requires taking 12 capsules daily, divided into three capsules four times a day with meals and at bedtime. Patients should take each dose with a full glass of water and complete the entire 10-day course as directed. It is important to avoid dairy, antacids, and iron supplements during dosing times, as these can reduce the medication’s absorption.
Generic Availability:
An FDA-approved generic version of Pylera, launched in 2023, is available in the United States and is therapeutically equivalent to the brand name. This generic option is much more affordable, with costs ranging from $187 to $220 for 120 capsules when using discount coupons. This provides a significant saving compared to the brand-name price, which can range from $304 to $857.
Warnings:
Alcohol must be avoided during the 10-day treatment and for three days afterward to prevent adverse reactions. Pylera is not safe for use during pregnancy because it can harm a developing fetus and cause permanent discoloration of teeth. Additionally, patients should avoid dairy products near their dosing times and ensure they finish the full 10-day supply even if they feel better.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
How much does Pylera cost without insurance?
Brand-name Pylera costs approximately $304.95–$857.96 for a full 10-day treatment course (120 capsules). Generic bismuth/metronidazole/tetracycline capsules are available for approximately $187–$220 with coupons. Through AffordMyPrescriptions, qualifying patients receive brand Pylera at no medication cost — our $69.95 fee covers advocacy and program management for the treatment course.
Is this the same Pylera I'd get at a pharmacy?
Yes. The Pylera provided through the Patient Assistance Program is the identical FDA- approved combination capsule dispensed at any retail pharmacy.
Is there a generic version of Pylera?
Yes. A generic was launched in 2023 and contains the same three active ingredients at the same strengths. With coupons it costs approximately $187–$220 for the full 120-capsule course. Our advocates will help you decide whether the brand PAP or generic with a coupon is the most affordable option for you.
How long is the treatment?
Pylera is taken for exactly 10 days as part of quadruple therapy. You take three Pylera capsules four times daily along with omeprazole twice daily. Complete the full 10-day course even if you feel better before finishing — stopping early increases the risk of treatment failure and antibiotic resistance.
Do I also need to take omeprazole?
Yes. Pylera is always prescribed as part of quadruple therapy, which includes a proton pump inhibitor like omeprazole taken twice daily throughout the 10-day treatment. Omeprazole is available as an affordable generic ($4–$10 with coupons).
What if my application is denied?
Our Patient Advocates will immediately explore every alternative — including the generic combination capsule ($187–$220), purchasing the individual generic components separately ($31–$82 total), GoodRx and SingleCare discounts, insurance formulary exception requests, and alternative H. pylori treatment regimens. If we cannot secure assistance, you won’t be charged.
