Brand nameNo maker’s card

We didn’t find a savings card or cash price from Claforan’s maker. Ask the pharmacy for Claforan’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Claforan itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Claforan is the only choice; ask the pharmacy for its cash price, or your plan what it charges.

Regular genericNot sold

The FDA has approved a generic, but it isn’t in pharmacies yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Claforan’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.
