How do you pay?

How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Auvi-Q

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.

  1. Ask your pharmacy for Auvi-Q’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.
  2. Auvi-Q’s savings card works only with insurance from a job or one you bought.

In the maker’s words

“Patients with commercial insurance coverage for AUVI-Q may pay a copay of $35 or less per carton.”

From the maker’s offer on auvi-q.com, checked November 2, 2026. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.

Maker’s card or discount card?

A discount card like GoodRx lowers the pharmacy’s cash price, but for a brand-name drug that price often stays high. Compare it with the maker’s card above. You can usually use one or the other on a fill, not both.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Auvi-Q itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Auvi-Q is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

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. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.
