   Medicare may cover some cancer drugs taken by mouth IF the same drug is available in an injectable form or is a prodrug. Xeloda is included this list. However, you will typically see these drugs covered under a stand-alone Part D prescription drug plan - you would need to check your plan's formulary to see if this specific drug is covered and at what tier it would fall under.
