Levsin is a brand-name prescription drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat a broad range of urinary and gastrointestinal disorders, including peptic ulcers, intestinal spasms, bladder spasms, infant colic, diverticulitis, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Hyoscyamine, the active ingredient in Levsin, is an anticholinergic or antispasmodic drug that slows down smooth muscle contractions and reduces stomach acid secretion. In terms of cost, Levsin is a brand-name drug, so the price is higher than the generic version. Still, there are many ways to reduce the cost.
What is the generic for Levsin?
The Levsin generic name is hyoscyamine sulfate. Generic Levsin can be purchased as an immediate-release tablet, extended-release tablet, orally disintegrating tablet, sublingual tablet, or oral solution. Generic hyoscyamine injections are also available.

How much does Levsin cost without insurance?
At the total retail price, 30, 0.125 mg Levsin tablets cost an average of $111, or about $4 per tablet. The adult dosage is one to two tablets every four hours to a maximum of 12 tablets in 24 hours. A month’s worth of Levsin treatment could cost as much as $1,000. However, the duration of treatment will vary, as some people may only need it for a short term and others may need treatment for longer periods.
People prescribed Levsin will probably be given generic hyoscyamine tablets by the pharmacist. They’re half the cost of the brand-name version. Other hyoscyamine brands, including Nulev, Hyosyne, and Oscimin, may be lower-priced than brand-name Levsin.

Is Levsin covered by insurance?
Brand-name Levsin is unlikely to be covered by many health insurance plans. Still, generic hyoscyamine is usually covered, as are some branded generic forms such as Oscimin, Symax, and Nulev, or the oral solution, Hyosyne. Branded generics are generic alternatives approved by the FDA, like other generics, but each manufacturer gives their product a unique hyoscyamine sulfate brand name to distinguish it from other generic drugs. Plans that do cover Levsin typically place it in their highest copay tiers.
Medicare drug plans are a separate issue. Hyoscyamine is considered a risky drug for seniors, so many Medicare plans do not cover Levsin or generic hyoscyamine. Some do, and in those cases, the out-of-pocket cost is determined by your plan’s structure and factors such as whether you have met a deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Again, Levsin is typically placed in the highest copay tiers, and generic Levsin in the lowest copay tiers.
How to get Levsin without insurance
As a brand-name medication, Levsin has a higher price than other commonly used drugs. Patient assistance programs can save money on brand-name prescription drugs, but not everyone will meet the often strict eligibility requirements. Fortunately, other possibilities exist, starting with a SingleCare prescription discount card.
1. Use a SingleCare savings card
Uninsured or underinsured patients can immediately save money on a Levsin prescription using a free coupon from SingleCare. Depending on your choice of pharmacy, you could pay $23 for 30, 0.125 mg tablets of generic Levsin. This represents a savings of about $90 off brand-name Levsin. SingleCare discounts will vary by participating pharmacy, so visit the Levsin discount coupon page to browse available savings at local pharmacies. SingleCare is free to use and available to everyone. Registered members can save even more, and it’s fast and free to sign up.
2. Switch to generic Levsin
The generic hyoscyamine sulfate cost is about $49 for 30, 0.125 mg tablets, about $60 less than the equivalent Levsin prescription. A free coupon from SingleCare lowers that cost to only $23 at Kroger. Generic hyoscyamine is the same as Levsin in terms of effectiveness, side effects, and drug interactions.
3. Look into Medicaid or the Medicare Low-Income Subsidy
You may qualify for Medicaid or the Medicare Low-Income Subsidy if your resources or income are limited. The eligibility requirements and enrollment information can be found on any state’s Medicaid website or by calling a representative of the state’s Medicaid services.
4. Explore community resources
Local public health clinics, community clinics, and 340B providers may be able to sell prescription drugs like Levsin at a steeply discounted price. For information about local resources, contact a local health department representative.
