No authorized generic: There isn’t one.

Regular generic: Sold only in a different form, strength or formula. Switching to one would need a new prescription, so ask your prescriber whether it could work for you.

Prices are the average U.S. drugstores pay (source: Medicaid, September 23, 2026). What you pay depends on your plan or the pharmacy.

Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.

In the maker’s words

“Patients with commercial health insurance who qualify to participate may pay as little as $0 for 30 capsules of ABSORICA LD.”

From the maker’s offer on absoricald.com, checked September 25, 2026. What you pay depends on your plan. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.

Before you use a discount card

Discount cards like GoodRx take money off the pharmacy’s cash price. For a brand-name drug, that price is often still high. With commercial insurance, Absorica LD’s own card may bring it to as little as $0 for 30 capsules.

Look up the discount-card price, then compare it with this estimate. You can use a maker’s card or a discount card, but usually not both on the same fill.

What pharmacies pay

Good to know

There’s no authorized generic of Absorica LD.
“Commercial insurance” means a plan from a job, from the marketplace, or one you buy yourself. A retiree plan that’s part of Medicare counts as Medicare. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.
Most cards need a sign-up on the maker’s site, and many work only if your plan covers the drug. Then give the card’s details to your pharmacy.
Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.
