Discount cards like GoodRx take money off the pharmacy’s cash price. For a brand-name drug, that price is often still high. Paying cash, the maker’s own price is $55 a month.
Look up the discount-card price, then compare it with this estimate. You can use a maker’s card or a discount card, but usually not both on the same fill.
