How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Crysvita

Crysvita 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.

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

In the maker’s words

“Co-Pay Assistance Program had $0 out-of-pocket costs for CRYSVITA.”

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

Regular genericNot sold

Crysvita 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, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.
