In the maker’s words

“Commercially insured patients may pay as little as $25 a month.”

“The Synthroid Delivers Program is a patient pharmacy service that partners with you to ensure you always get brand-name Synthroid as low as $25 a month for a 90-day supply.”

From the maker’s offer on synthroid.com, checked September 25, 2026. What you pay depends on your plan. Co-pay cards can’t be used with Medicare (including Medicare Advantage), Medicaid, TRICARE or VA.

Before you use a discount card

Discount cards like GoodRx take money off the pharmacy’s cash price. For a brand-name drug, that price is often still high. With commercial insurance, Synthroid’s own card may bring it to as little as $25 a month. Paying cash, the maker’s own price is as little as $25 a month.

Look up the discount-card price, then compare it with this estimate. You can use a maker’s card or a discount card, but usually not both on the same fill.

Good to know

A regular generic has the same active ingredient, strength and form as Synthroid, and the FDA requires it to work the same way. Its fillers and dyes can differ, so it may look different.
There’s no authorized generic of Synthroid.
“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.
