In the maker’s words

“You must have commercial drug insurance that covers Foundayo and a prescription for an approved use consistent with FDA-approved product labeling to pay as little as $25 for a 1-month, 2-month, or 3-month prescription fill of Foundayo.”

“Regular pricing for a 1-month supply of Foundayo: $149 (0.8 mg), $199 (2.5 mg), $299 (5.5 mg), $299 (9 mg), $349 (14.5 mg), $349 (17.2 mg).”

From the maker’s offer on foundayo.lilly.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 price above. You can usually use one or the other on a fill, not both.

Brand nameTrumpRx.gov price

TrumpRx.gov, the federal government’s drug price site, lists Foundayo at a price its maker agreed to, for people paying without insurance.

    TrumpRx’s terms

    “The price for the 2.5mg dose is temporarily reduced through December 31, 2026. Regular price is $199. The price for the 5.5mg dose is temporarily reduced through December 31, 2026. Regular price is $299. *Eligibility required, terms and conditions apply. Review full terms and conditions.”

From TrumpRx.gov, read October 28, 2026. Its page opens on this price; other strengths and amounts are priced there too. With insurance, check your co-pay first: it may be lower.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Foundayo itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Foundayo is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.
