What dose and form changes the price?
Trintellix’s cost typically differs based on:
- Strength (for example, 5 mg vs 10 mg vs 20 mg)
- Tablet count per prescription fill (30-day vs 90-day supply, where available)
Ask your pharmacy for the price for your exact strength and quantity before you pick up the prescription.
Does insurance usually lower the cost?
Usually, yes, but the size of the copay depends on your plan’s:
- Formulary status (whether Trintellix is preferred or non-preferred)
- Copay tier
- Deductible status
If your copay is high, ask whether there is a lower-cost alternative on your plan that is “therapeutically equivalent” (or whether a prior authorization is needed).
Are there cheaper alternatives if Trintellix is too expensive?
Cheaper options may include:
- Switching to a lower-cost antidepressant covered on your plan
- Using a pharmacy discount card (if eligible)
- Checking whether manufacturer support programs apply to you (availability depends on the product and your situation)
Your prescriber and pharmacist can help you compare options based on your diagnosis and what your insurer covers.
Quick steps to get the lowest price today
- Call the pharmacy with your exact dose and ask for the “cash price” and any discount price they can apply.
- Compare at least one other nearby pharmacy if possible.
- If you use insurance, ask for your copay before filling (copays can change by strength and quantity).
