Does insurance cover it
Most private plans cover Farxiga when it is used for type 2 diabetes, heart failure, or chronic kidney disease. Plans do not usually cover it for weight loss. Your copay depends on your plan and the tier the drug sits on. Medicare Part D covers it too, with a negotiated price for 2026 and a yearly cap on what you pay. Some plans ask for a prior approval first. Ask your plan if the generic is covered, since it may have a lower copay. If you have no coverage, ask about patient help programs.
How to judge your quote
- Ask if the pharmacy has generic dapagliflozin. It is the same drug for far less.
- Ask for the cash price and the discount card price at three pharmacies.
- Ask if your Medicare or private plan lists Farxiga on a preferred tier.
- A fair brand cash price for 30 tablets is near the middle of the $550 to $785 range or lower.
- Compare the total with the range above: $550 to $785 per month for most people in 2026.
Ways to pay less
- Ask for generic dapagliflozin. Same drug, a small fraction of the price.
- Run the price through GoodRx and SingleCare before you fill. The spread between pharmacies is hundreds of dollars.
- If you are on Medicare, make sure your Part D plan lists Farxiga on a preferred tier for 2026.
- Ask about AstraZeneca's patient assistance program if you are uninsured and on a low income. It can be free.
