Myrbetriq (mirabegron) is a brand-name oral prescription medication that treats overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms. The drug relaxes the main bladder muscle to help relieve urinary incontinence and urinary frequency. Like most brand-name drugs, Myrbetriq can be pricey, especially for those who are uninsured or underinsured. Fortunately, SingleCare coupons, financial assistance programs, and other cost-cutting strategies can help reduce the out-of-pocket cost of a Myrbetriq prescription. 

How much does Myrbetriq cost?

Without insurance or discounts, the average cash price of Myrbetriq is $625 for 30, 50 mg extended-release oral tablets. This is a 30-day supply based on the standard dosage of one tablet daily. However, drug prices vary by pharmacy and location. 

Does insurance cover Myrbetriq?

Myrbetriq is usually covered by insurance, but coverage varies by plan, and some plans require you to try (and fail) lower-cost medications before they’ll cover Myrbetriq. “Even when covered, copays can differ significantly depending on the plan,” says JaLorean Hayes, a registered nurse, public health consultant, and founder of Hayes Global Health Strategies.

Medicare typically covers Myrbetriq “without any restrictions,” according to Troy Alexander-El, MD, a board-certified internal medicine physician in Chicago, Illinois. Conversely, they say Medicaid coverage normally requires prior authorization and step therapy. Prior authorization, or preauthorization, is when a health insurance plan requires documentation from a healthcare professional that the treatment is medically necessary. Step therapy is a process that involves patients trying at least one cheaper medication (and failing due to ineffectiveness or unwanted side effects) before moving on to a more expensive drug like Myrbetriq. 

Ultimately, the only way to know how much your Myrbetriq prescription will cost with insurance is to contact your insurance plan. If you are not insured, check your eligibility for savings opportunities like prescription discount cards or patient assistance programs. 

How to save money on Myrbetriq

If you need help paying for Myrbetriq, check your eligibility for these discounts and savings programs.

1. Myrbetriq coupons from SingleCare

Using a Myrbetriq coupon from SingleCare could reduce the cost of Myrbetriq by hundreds of dollars per month. With a coupon or your SingleCare prescription discount card, you can expect to pay $452 instead of $625 for 30, 50 mg 24-hour extended-release tablets of brand-name Myrbetriq. Or, you can purchase a 30-day supply of generic Myrbetriq (mirabegron) with a SingleCare coupon for $189. Prices vary by quantity, pharmacy, and location.

To access these savings, type in the name of your medication in the search field of the SingleCare website or app. Next, compare the prices shown at pharmacies near you, and ask your healthcare provider to send your prescription to that specific pharmacy and location. If your prescription has already been sent to a different pharmacy, your chosen pharmacy can easilytransfer of your prescription from the other pharmacy. Once you’re ready to pay, show your SingleCare prescription discount card or Myrbetriq coupon, and they’ll charge you the SingleCare price. 

It’s important to know that while people with health insurance can use SingleCare coupons, they cannot use the coupon in addition to billing insurance. You must choose between lowering the cash price with a coupon or using insurance coverage. Use whichever is cheaper.

Regular SingleCare users can earn bonus savings on their discounts. All that’s required is to sign up for SingleCare’s bonus loyalty program, which is free. Each purchase will accumulate bonus savings on future purchases.

2. Medicare Extra Help

Medicare’s Extra Help program, also known as the Low-Income Subsidy (LIS), helps eligible Medicare Part D beneficiaries pay their plan premiums and drug costs. Those accepted into the Extra Help program pay less for brand-name prescriptions like Myrbetriq. Because Medicare Extra Help is a needs-based program, enrollees will need to meet income eligibility requirements. 

3. Manufacturer savings

Astellas Pharma U.S., Inc. offers a Myrbetriq copay card for people with commercial insurance, but there’s a maximum savings of $840 per year. Patients are still responsible for the first $20, plus any amount over $90 for each prescription. The first prescription fill can cost as low as $0. Not everyone is eligible for the program. The copay card can only be used with commercial insurance. The card cannot be used with any federal or state health insurance. 

4. Healthcare provider samples

“Occasionally, if the medication is prescribed by a specialist, such as a urologist, they may have free samples,” Dr. Alexander-El says. Free samples aren’t a long-term savings strategy, but they are a helpful way to try the medication and see if it’s worth purchasing. Ask your prescribing healthcare provider if they have free samples at your next medical appointment for OAB.

5. Comparison shopping

Drug prices can vary from pharmacy to pharmacy, so comparing costs before filling your first Myrbetriq prescription is a good idea. Make sure to compare the costs of a 30-day supply versus a 90-day supply as well. It may be cheaper per pill, but that’s not always true for brand-name medications like Myrbetriq. 

Is there a cheaper alternative to Myrbetriq?

There are several Myrbetriq alternatives your healthcare provider may recommend that may be less expensive. 

The most suitable alternative may be to switch to generic mirabegron, the active ingredient in Myrbetriq. The generic version is completely interchangeable with Myrbetriq and just as effective. In fact, many people with insurance may find their Myrbetriq prescription swapped out for the generic version at the pharmacy because that’s what the insurance plan will cover. Depending on your choice of pharmacy and location, you may be able to pay $189 for 30, 50 mg 24-hour tablets of generic mirabegron ER, instead of $452 for brand-name Myrbetriq, with a SingleCare discount.

Dr. Alexander-El says that Gemtesa (vibegron) is the most similar to Myrbetriq based on the mechanism of action. However, Gemtesa is also a brand-name prescription drug that costs $692 for 30, 75 mg tablets, about the same price as Myrbetriq without insurance or discounts. With a SingleCare discount, you can pay $442 for Gemtesa, depending on your location and choice of pharmacy.

For significant savings, patients may need to switch to a very different type of OAB medication, including generic oxybutynin, tolterodine, or solifenacin. All these alternatives are antimuscarinic agents, which have an efficacy of 65%–70% in reducing major OAB symptoms. However, they often have bothersome side effects that drugs like Myrbetriq don’t have, namely dry mouth, constipation, and mental changes. 

“Oxybutynin would be the cheaper alternative. It can have side effects such as dry eyes or dry mouth. The long-acting formulation usually has fewer side effects than the immediate-release,” Dr. Alexander-El says.

Current retail prices, before insurance or discounts, for a one-month supply of these generic OAB treatments are as follows:

• Oxybutynin ER costs $104 per 30, 10 mg extended-release tablets. You could pay $10 with a SingleCare discount.
• Tolterodine ER costs $246 per 30, 4 mg extended-release capsules. You could pay $20 with a SingleCare discount.
• Solifenacin succinate costs $394 per 30, 10 mg tablets. You could pay $16 with a SingleCare discount. 

Bottom line

While there are cheaper alternatives to Myrbetriq, it’s important to seek personalized medical advice about the best treatment for your OAB symptoms. The best prescription for you may depend on your medical history, past allergic reactions, other health conditions such as high blood pressure, other medications you’re taking, and insurance coverage.
