2025 California Individual Select
Drug List
The
California Select Drug List is a list of prescription medications approved by
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We’ve reviewed these drugs through
our Pharmacy and Therapeutics (P&T) Process, which considers a drug’s:
- Effectiveness
- Safety
- Similarity to other drugs within a therapeutic
class
- Affordability
PLEASE NOTE: Your coverage has limitations and exclusions. This
means that some drugs on this list may not be covered, depending on your
plan’s design. For example, your plan might not
cover certain drugs for cosmetic uses or to treat conditions such as weight
loss, infertility, or erectile dysfunction. To find out if your drug is
covered, log into your member portal or use the Sydney app to Price a Medication and
refer to your plan documents.
Search
by medication name for up-to-date drug information, including the benefit tier
your drugs are on, as well as applicable clinical edits such as prior
authorization or step therapy requirements.
