Question

Accepted Answer

Rytary (48.75 mg lisdexamfetamine)
(The tablet contains 48.75 mg of the active ingredient and the remainder is an inert carrier, which is why the tablet is often listed as “48.75 mg/195 mg.”)

Pack Size	Typical U.S. Retail Price (GoodRx‑average)	Approx. Cost per Tablet	Notes
30 tablets	$340 – $410	$11 – $14	Most pharmacies charge in this range; discount cards or insurance can reduce it.
60 tablets	$680 – $840	$11 – $14	Same per‑tablet cost as 30‑tab pack.
90 tablets	$1,020 – $1,200	$11 – $14	3‑month supply; often used for patients on long‑term therapy.

Why the price is high

No generic – Lisdex‑amfetamine (Rytary) is a brand‑name drug; the FDA has not approved a generic equivalent, so manufacturers retain exclusive pricing.

Special formulation – Rytary uses a proprietary dual‑release system that controls the rate at which the drug is released into the bloodstream, which adds to manufacturing costs.

Demand & Insurance – Many patients receive it through insurance plans that cover stimulant medications, but copays can still be sizeable (often $20–$80 per refill).

How to get the best price

Strategy	How it works	Typical savings
GoodRx or similar discount sites	Enter the medication name and pharmacy; see available coupons	$20–$40 off a 30‑tab bottle
Manufacturer coupon or patient assistance	Lisdexamfetamine manufacturers sometimes offer coupons or assistance for low‑income patients	Up to full coverage for qualifying patients
Insurance plan	Many health plans cover stimulants; check the copay or coinsurance amount	Can drop the cost to $0–$50 per refill
Online mail‑order pharmacy	Some insurers’ mail‑order programs offer lower costs	5–10 % off the retail price
Ask about a 90‑day refill	Some pharmacies offer a discounted price for a 90‑day supply	10–15 % savings over buying three separate 30‑tab bottles

Bottom line

Per‑tablet cost: Roughly $11–$14.
30‑tablet bottle: Roughly $340–$410.
90‑tablet bottle: Roughly $1,020–$1,200.

Prices can fluctuate depending on pharmacy, location, insurance coverage, and whether any discount programs are applied. Always check the most recent price from your preferred pharmacy or a price‑comparison tool before making a purchase.
