How much does Singulair (montelukast) cost with insurance?
The amount you pay for Singulair with insurance depends on your prescription plan’s copay rules (fixed copay vs. coinsurance), your pharmacy, your deductible status, and whether you’re using the brand or a generic version (montelukast). Without your plan details, there isn’t a single accurate “with insurance” price.
What usually lowers the price: brand vs. generic
Singulair is the brand name of montelukast. Many insurance plans cover the generic montelukast and charge a much lower copay than the brand. If your plan covers generic montelukast, the cost with insurance is often closer to a typical low copay tier than the brand tier.
What you can check right now to get the exact copay
To find your exact cost, use your insurer’s pharmacy portal or app and look up:
- The drug name: Singulair vs. montelukast
- The strength and form (for example, 10 mg tablets; 4 mg chewables)
- Your pharmacy (prices can vary by network)
- Your current status (deductible met or not)
If you tell me these details, I can narrow it down
Reply with:
1) Your insurance type (commercial / Medicare / Medicaid)
2) Whether you’re buying Singulair brand or generic montelukast
3) The strength/form (e.g., 10 mg tablet, 4 mg chewable)
4) Your zip code or pharmacy name
5) Whether you’ve met your deductible (if you know)
Then I can help you estimate what copay range is most likely and what to ask the pharmacy.
