How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Depo-SubQ Provera

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 Depo-SubQ Provera’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.

Brand nameNo maker’s card

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

Authorized genericNot sold

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

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, ask the pharmacy for Depo-SubQ Provera’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.
