What does Geodon (ziprasidone) cost, and what changes the price?
Geodon pricing varies mainly by (1) the exact product strength and formulation (capsules vs. other forms), (2) whether you buy brand-name Geodon or a generic ziprasidone, (3) pharmacy and location, and (4) insurance/copay rules. Without those details, any single number can be misleading.
How much cheaper is generic ziprasidone than brand Geodon?
In most cases, generic ziprasidone costs less than brand Geodon because it competes on price once generics are available. The specific gap depends on your pharmacy’s list prices, your coverage, and whether you’re paying cash (no insurance).
How to check the current Geodon price at your pharmacy
For the most accurate “today” price, check:
- Your pharmacy’s online price (cash price and any “discount” programs it shows)
- Your insurance portal/copay estimate (often different from cash pricing)
- Prescription discount sites or coupon programs (if you are uninsured or underinsured)
