Ask for the cash price
Amphadase
Amphadase is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold.
- Ask your pharmacy for Amphadase’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.

Authorized genericNot sold
There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Amphadase itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Amphadase is the only choice; ask the pharmacy for its cash price, or your plan what it charges.
Regular genericNot sold
Amphadase is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Amphadase’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.
