How to pay the least

Cash price

$460+ for 30 capsules

Pharmacies pay about this for JORNAY PM; you’d pay more.

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

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.

In the maker’s words

“Depending on your insurance coverage, eligible patients may pay as little as $25 on their first use.”

From the maker’s offer on jornaypm.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 JORNAY PM itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now JORNAY PM 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.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

JORNAY PM is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant indicated for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in patients 6 years and older.

Limitations of Use

The use of Jornay PM is not recommended in pediatric patients younger than 6 years of age because they had higher plasma exposure and a higher incidence of adverse reactions (e.g., weight loss) than patients 6 years and older at the same dosage.
