Specialty medications are a unique category of drugs used to treat complex or rare medical conditions, such as cancer, multiple sclerosis, or HIV. These medications often require special handling, storage, and administration, and they may be more expensive than traditional medications. Patients using specialty medications typically receive support from healthcare providers, including pharmacists and nurses, to help manage their treatment. This support can include education about the medication, monitoring for side effects, and assistance with insurance coverage and access to the medication.
