In the maker’s words

“Eligible commercially insured patients may pay as little as $25 for their first XELSTRYM prescription.”

“Cash- paying patients receive up to $150 off each prescription.”

From the maker’s offer on xelstrym.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.

Brand nameWith a free discount coupon

Optum Perks, Optum’s free discount coupon, lists these prices for Xelstrym without insurance. Show the coupon from its page at the pharmacy; it can’t be used with insurance.

From Optum Perks, read November 2, 2026, with no location set. Its page opens on this dose; other doses and pharmacies near you are priced there too. With insurance, check your co-pay first: it may be lower.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Xelstrym itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Xelstrym is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

XELSTRYM is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant indicated for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in adults and pediatric patients 6 years and older

Limitations of Use:

The use of XELSTRYM is not recommended in pediatric patients younger than 6 years of age because they had higher plasma exposure and a higher incidence of adverse reactions (e.g., weight loss) than patients 6 years and older at the same dosage.
