In the maker’s words

“If you have commercial insurance, there are 2 easy ways to pay as little as $0 for you or your child’s Siklos ® prescription!”

“Siklos ® 100 mg tablets: pay as little as $99 for 60 tablets or $149 for 90 tablets…”

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

Regular genericNot sold

Sold only in a different form, strength or formula. Switching to one would need a new prescription, so ask your prescriber whether it could work for you. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.
