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, Zirgan’s own card may bring it to as little as $25 a fill. Paying cash, the maker’s own price is $79 a fill.
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.
