Is the lipitor discount card valid for refills?



The Lipitor discount card, also known as the Atorvastatin Calcium Savings Card, can be used for refills [2]. This card can help eligible patients save on their out-of-pocket costs for Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium) prescription refills. The discount card can be used at most pharmacies in the United States, and it offers a maximum savings of up to $75 per prescription fill [2]. However, it is important to note that the discount card cannot be used in combination with any other insurance or government-funded program [2].

It is worth mentioning that Lipitor is a brand-name medication that contains atorvastatin calcium as its active ingredient [1]. Atorvastatin calcium is also available as a generic medication, which can be significantly less expensive than the brand-name version [1, 2]. GoodRx lists the average retail price of atorvastatin calcium as $11.34 for a 30-day supply, while the average retail price of Lipitor is $458.80 for the same supply [2].

Additionally, Crestor (rosuvastatin calcium) is another cholesterol-lowering medication that offers a savings program for eligible patients [3]. The Crestor Savings Card can help eligible patients save on their out-of-pocket costs for Crestor prescription refills, offering a maximum savings of up to $130 per 30-day supply [3].

In conclusion, the Lipitor discount card can be used for refills and can help eligible patients save on their out-of-pocket costs for Lipitor prescription refills. However, it is important to note that the discount card cannot be used in combination with any other insurance or government-funded program. It is also worth considering the significantly lower cost of the generic version of atorvastatin calcium compared to the brand-name Lipitor. Finally, Crestor also offers a savings program for eligible patients.
