How to pay the least

Ask for the cash price

Generic vigabatrin

No pharmacy we check posts a price for it.

  1. Ask your pharmacy for the cash price of generic vigabatrin.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 Sabril, and the FDA requires it to work the same way.

In the maker’s words

“Use of the Copay Assistance program will require patients to pay a minimum of $10 out-of-pocket expense for each 30-day prescription.”

From the maker’s offer on assets.lundbeck-tools.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 Sabril 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.

Regular genericMakers and their savings cards

10 companies sell a generic of Sabril that the FDA rates a substitute. A pharmacy fills whichever one it stocks. 5 of them have their own savings cards or programs, listed first. Each works only with that maker’s version. To get a certain maker, ask for it by name; most pharmacies can order it in a day or two.

It’s mostly filled by specialty pharmacies. Your prescriber’s office or insurer can tell you which one to use.

What to say at the pharmacy

“Before you fill my Sabril, 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.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

SABRIL is indicated for the treatment of:

  • Refractory Complex Partial Seizures as adjunctive therapy in patients 2 years of age and older who have responded inadequately to several alternative treatments; SABRIL is not indicated as a first line agent
  • Infantile Spasms - monotherapy in infants 1 month to 2 years of age for whom the potential benefits outweigh the potential risk of vision loss
