Victoza<\/span><\/a> (liraglutide) is an injectable prescription medication used to treat Type 2 diabetes, lower the risk of serious heart-related events in people with Type 2 diabetes and heart disease, and, off-label, for weight loss. Victoza is a GLP-1 agonist, like the popular and well-known drug <\/span>Ozempic<\/span><\/a> (semaglutide), but it\u2019s a daily rather than a weekly injection. Unfortunately, Victoza can be financially challenging for people who don\u2019t have adequate insurance coverage, since yearly costs can run into the thousands. Fortunately, SingleCare discount coupons or other price-saving options may help reduce out-of-pocket expenses. Here\u2019s what you should know to save on prescription Victoza.<\/span><\/p>\n

How much does Victoza cost without insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Without insurance or discounts, Victoza costs an average of $1,412 for a box of pens that can last 30 to 90 days, depending on the <\/span>daily dose<\/span><\/a>. The annual cost of <\/span>Victoza without insurance<\/span><\/a> ranges from $11,000 to $17,000.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Generic Victoza can cost around 20% less than the brand-name version, averaging $385 for 1, 3 mL of 18 mg\/3 mL pens, or about $1,159 for three. However, with a SingleCare liraglutide coupon, you could pay $194 for 3, 3 mL of 18 mg\/3 mL pens of generic liraglutide, depending on your choice of pharmacy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is Victoza covered by insurance?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Victoza is covered by most major health insurance plans, including Medicare Part D. Victoza often appears on the preferred drug list for Medicaid programs, but coverage can vary by state. Verify coverage through your health insurance provider.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Insurance may require <\/span>prior authorization<\/span><\/a> before covering Victoza, particularly if it\u2019s prescribed for off-label uses like weight loss. Some plans may require you to try a generic or preferred alternative first, a process called step therapy, before approving Victoza. Always check your plan\u2019s formulary and ask your provider about any restrictions or alternatives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If approved, you may be responsible for out-of-pocket costs, such as a copay, deductible, or coinsurance amount. Your total costs will depend on your prescription drug plan. For example, your insurance plan may place Victoza on a higher tier, meaning the Victoza copay will probably be higher than the copay for lower-tier medications. Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not currently offer a Victoza copay card that can help with the copay cost.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Compare prices<\/span><\/h3>\n

Prices for Victoza can vary significantly between pharmacies, so it\u2019s important to shop around before filling your prescription. Some pharmacies may charge much more than others, even within the same city. By comparing prices, you can avoid overpaying and find the best deal available.<\/span><\/p>\n

SingleCare offers an easy-to-use <\/span>search tool<\/span><\/a> to compare Victoza prices at nearby pharmacies. Simply enter your ZIP code and prescription details to see a list of prices from various locations. This way, you can maximize your savings with minimal effort. You can also use the <\/span>SingleCare app<\/span><\/a> on the go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Check eligibility for patient assistance programs\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re struggling to afford Victoza, patient assistance programs may be able to help. These programs, often sponsored by the manufacturer or nonprofit organizations, provide free or discounted medication to eligible individuals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can find more information about the manufacturer\u2019s Victoza patient assistance program through the manufacturer\u2019s website or by asking your healthcare provider for guidance. In addition, if you have Medicare, you may qualify for the Medicare Part D <\/span>Extra Help<\/span><\/a> program, which helps people with limited income and resources pay for prescription drugs, including Victoza.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some states have a <\/span>State Pharmaceutical Assistance Program<\/span><\/a> that provides prescription medications at a discount for people who can\u2019t pay for their medications. People with Medicare Part D or, in some states, people with disabilities may be eligible for these programs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Check for free samples<\/span><\/h3>\n

Some healthcare providers may have free Victoza samples available for new patients. If you\u2019re starting Victoza, ask your healthcare provider if they can provide you with a sample to help offset the initial cost.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Free samples can give you time to explore long-term savings options, such as discount cards or assistance programs, before committing to a full prescription. They may also help patients waiting on prior authorization from their insurance. Not all offices have samples on hand, but it may be worth asking during your appointment.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Review eligibility for Medicaid\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019ve had a reduction in income or a change in your employment status, you may qualify for Medicaid or other state-sponsored health insurance, which could cover the cost of Victoza. With Medicaid, Victoza may be covered under your prescription benefits, depending on your state\u2019s Medicaid program and its formulary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Check with your Medicaid plan to see if Victoza is included, and ask your healthcare provider if any prior authorizations are needed. Using Medicaid for your prescription could help reduce out-of-pocket costs, sometimes leaving you with only a minimal copay. If you\u2019re unsure about your coverage, speak with your pharmacy or case worker for more information.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is there a cheaper alternative to Victoza?<\/span><\/h2>\n

There may be cheaper alternatives to Victoza. However, the costs can vary depending on the medication and the quantity prescribed. Your healthcare provider can help you choose the best treatment option based on your health conditions, preferences, and insurance coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n

Several diabetes medications in the same drug class as Victoza are available. Other GLP-1 agonists include:<\/span><\/p>\n
