We didn’t find a savings card or cash price from Celexa’s maker. Ask the pharmacy for Celexa’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges.
Authorized genericNot sold
There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Celexa itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. A regular generic is sold, with the same active ingredient: ask the pharmacy for its price.
