Cost of vyvanse without insurance?

Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate) is brand-name only, so the out-of-pocket cost without insurance can be high. A typical 30-day supply can run roughly in the range of $400–$600, and the exact price depends on:

- your prescribed dose (e.g., 30 mg vs 70 mg)
- how many capsules you get
- the pharmacy you use
- your location

Ways to lower the cost without insurance:
- Check current prices at a few local pharmacies or use a price-comparison app (like GoodRx) to see discounts for your exact dose and quantity.
- Look for manufacturer savings or patient-assistance programs. Vyvanse may have savings cards or programs that reduce the out-of-pocket cost.
- Talk to your pharmacist about available discounts or a different packaging option (sometimes 30- or 90-day supplies have different pricing).
- Ask your prescriber about alternatives if cost is a barrier (e.g., other ADHD meds that have generic options such as methylphenidate or amphetamine formulations). Your clinician can discuss efficacy, side effects, and coverage.
- If you have insurance in the future, check formulary coverage and preferred copays for Vyvanse vs. generics.
