Brand nameNo maker’s card

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

Authorized genericNot sold

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

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Nextstellis’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.

What it’s used for
