Check your insurance plan’s formulary. Many plans offer coverage for Viagra, though the specific cost varies widely depending on your plan’s tier system and your copay. Contact your insurance provider directly to determine your out-of-pocket expense. Don’t rely on estimates – get the exact details.
Prescription Discount Cards
If your insurance doesn’t cover Viagra, or provides insufficient coverage, explore prescription discount cards. Websites like GoodRx and SingleCare offer cards that can significantly reduce the price at participating pharmacies. Compare prices across different cards and pharmacies; prices fluctuate. Always check the current price before using a card.
Manufacturer Savings Programs
Pharmaceutical companies sometimes offer patient assistance programs. These programs can provide discounts or even free medication based on income or other factors. Visit the manufacturer’s website – Pfizer in this case – to find details on any available programs. Eligibility requirements apply.
Negotiating with Pharmacies
Some pharmacies offer price matching or discounts on certain medications. Inquire about potential discounts or programs they offer. Be prepared to show proof of other pharmacies’ lower prices. Shop around; prices vary substantially from one pharmacy to another.
