How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Generic nintedanib

No pharmacy we check posts a price for nintedanib 150 mg, 30 capsules. Pharmacies pay about $361 for 30 capsules; cash prices are higher. Ask two or three.

  1. Ask your pharmacy: “What’s your cash price for generic nintedanib 150 mg, 30 capsules?”Find pharmacies near you 
  2. Ask one or two other pharmacies too. Cash prices for the same generic can differ a lot from store to store.

A regular generic has the same active ingredient as Ofev, and the FDA requires it to work the same way.

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 Ofev itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. A regular generic is sold, with the same active ingredient: ask the pharmacy for its price.

What to say at the pharmacy

“Before you fill my Ofev, can you tell me what I’d pay for the brand and for a generic?”

Paying cash? Ask for each one’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges for each.
