How to Save on Synthroid

There are ways to save money each time
you refill your Synthroid prescription

5 ways to save money on Synthroid

1. Ask your doctor for a 90- or 100-tablet prescription of Synthroid
Has your doctor found the right dose of Synthroid for you? If so, you might save money (and time) by getting a 90-tablet or 100-tablet supply of Synthroid with each refill.

2. Find out the retail cash price of Synthroid before you fill your prescription
The retail cash price of Synthroid is the full price of the medicine. Did you know that you have the right to pay cash for your medicine instead of using your drug insurance co-pay? Believe it or not, your co-pay could actually be higher than the cash price of Synthroid. For example, your co-pay for a 30-tablet prescription of Synthroid may be $25. But the retail cash price may only be $20. The cost per tablet may be even lower if you have a 90-tablet or 100-tablet prescription.

3. Compare prices at local pharmacies
The cash price for Synthroid can vary quite a bit from one pharmacy to another. To find the best price for all your prescription needs, it could pay to shop around! Discount clubs often have lower prices and do not require a membership to use their pharmacy.

4. Use the Synthroid Price Calculator
This simple tool can help you choose the best way to pay for your Synthroid prescription. All you have to do is enter a few key details, such as the amount of your co-pay, the size of your refill (either 30 tablets or 90 to 100 tablets), whether you plan to use the Synthroid coupon, and the retail cash price. The Synthroid Price Calculator helps you compare whether it is a better deal for you to pay the retail cash price or use your co-pay.

5. Register and download the $3 or $10 Synthroid coupon
Each time you refill your prescription, download a money-saving Synthroid coupon. You can save $3 off the retail cash price for a 30-tablet prescription or $10 off the retail cash price for a 90-tablet or 100-tablet prescription.

Remember to check your tablets before you leave the pharmacy. Be sure they say "Synthroid." If they do not, your tablets are not Synthroid.
