What pushes the price up
| What | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Brand or generic | Generic lisdexamfetamine costs far less than brand Vyvanse. GoodRx lists generic capsules at $61.74 to $74.89 with a coupon, while brand cash prices run into the hundreds. |

| Coupon or no coupon | GoodRx lists generic capsules at about $389 retail. A discount card cuts that to under $75 at the stores GoodRx tracks, so never pay the retail price. |
What the price includes
The price is for one fill of 30 capsules or chewable tablets at one strength. It covers the drug only. It does not cover the doctor visit you need to get a prescription. Vyvanse is a controlled drug, so you need a valid prescription each time. Tax or a membership fee can add to the total. SingleCare says its listed prices include a one time $3 signup bonus.
Does insurance cover it
Many insurance plans cover Vyvanse, but some ask for approval first. Your copay depends on your plan and drug tier. Generic lisdexamfetamine usually costs less than the brand. If you pay cash, a discount card can beat a high copay or deductible, so check both prices. Cash purchases may not count toward your deductible, so ask your plan. Drugs.com lists the HealthWell Foundation and Rx Outreach as programs that cover Vyvanse for people who qualify. Ask your pharmacist to run the price both ways before you pay.
