How do you pay?

How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Gloperba

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 Gloperba’s cash price, and one or two other pharmacies too.
  2. Gloperba’s savings card works only with insurance from a job or one you bought.

In the maker’s words

“Refills are as low as $25 Commercial insurance patients only.”

From the maker’s offer on gloperba.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.

Brand nameWith a free discount coupon

Optum Perks, Optum’s free discount coupon, lists these prices for Gloperba without insurance. Show the coupon from its page at the pharmacy; it can’t be used with insurance.

From Optum Perks, read November 2, 2026, with no location set. Its page opens on this dose; other doses and pharmacies near you 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 Gloperba itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Gloperba is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

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