Excluded Drugs

This page highlights a select list of medications that are excluded from the CVS formulary. This allows the plan to direct use to lower-cost, equally effective alternatives (often direct generic equivalents). In addition to the suggested alternatives listed here, you may consult the 1199SEIU CVS Preferred Drug List (formulary) to find clinically similar and effective treatments.

Drug list as of July 1, 2026, subject to change.
