Authorized genericNot sold
There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Sensipar 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 Sensipar, 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.
