Strength How many

How to pay the least

Cash price

$150+ for 30 capsules

Pharmacies pay about this for Pertzye; you’d pay more.

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

Pertzye is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold.

In the maker’s words

“PAY AS LITTLE AS $0 per Prescription.”

From the maker’s offer on pertzye.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 Pertzye without insurance. Show the coupon from its page at the pharmacy; it can’t be used with insurance.

Pick up in store: Target (CVS) $515for 90 capsules16000/57500unit
Pick up in store: Walgreens $547for 90 capsules16000/57500unit

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 Pertzye itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Pertzye is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

Pertzye is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.

Good to know

“Commercial insurance” means a plan from a job, from the marketplace, or one you buy yourself. A retiree plan that’s part of Medicare counts as Medicare. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.
Most cards need a sign-up on the maker’s site, and many work only if your plan covers the drug. Then give the card’s details to your pharmacy.
Don’t stop or change a medicine without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber.
