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 price 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 Contrave itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Contrave is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

We didn’t find one. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

CONTRAVE is a combination of naltrexone, an opioid antagonist, and bupropion, an aminoketone antidepressant, indicated in combination with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to reduce excess body weight and maintain weight reduction long term in adults with obesity or overweight in the presence of at least one weight-related comorbid condition.

Limitations of Use:

  • The effect of CONTRAVE on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has not been established.
  • Coadministration with other naltrexone-containing products is not recommended. Coadministration with other bupropion-containing products is contraindicated.
