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 Wellbutrin XL 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.

About these prices
Prices change, can differ by store and state, and may depend on the strength and how many you take. With insurance, ask what your plan charges; it can be less. Most online clinics don’t take insurance.
Regular genericWho makes it
16 companies sell a generic of Wellbutrin XL that the FDA rates a substitute. A pharmacy fills whichever one it stocks. To get a certain maker, ask for it by name; most pharmacies can order it in a day or two.
The FDA doesn’t rate Aurobindo Pharma and Solco Healthcare’s versions of bupropion a substitute for Wellbutrin XL, so a pharmacy can’t swap them in without your prescriber’s OK.
Who sells it: FDA and Medicaid records, updated weekly. Each maker’s page, card and program is from its own site.
What to say at the pharmacy
“Before you fill my Wellbutrin XL, 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.

Good to know
A regular generic may look different from Wellbutrin XL. The FDA requires it to work the same way.
“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.
