If you don’t have insurance or if your copay is still too high with insurance, you can use a SingleCare savings card for a discount on brand-name tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro) or other GLP-1s.
Brand-name versions of tirzepatide are not usually covered by insurance unless they are prescribed to treat specific medical conditions.
The brand-name version Mounjaro is typically only covered by insurance if it’s prescribed to treat Type 2 diabetes. Insurance may be more likely to cover tirzepatide for weight loss if the brand-name version Zepbound is prescribed. That’s because Zepbound is FDA-approved for chronic weight management. However, drug formularies and copays will vary.
Medicare plans may cover tirzepatide for diabetes or weight loss in the treatment of certain health conditions.
All insurance plans are different. If you’ve been prescribed tirzepatide for a covered indication, you’ll need to check your plan’s formulary or contact your insurance provider to find out how much your tirzepatide copay is. Prior authorization may also be required.
Even if insurance covers your tirzepatide prescription, it may still be expensive. You can use a free tirzepatide coupon from SingleCare to get a discount on all of your refills. Using a tirzepatide discount card from SingleCare could lower your price of brand-name Zepbound to $490.02 per 1, 2.4ml of 2.5mg/0.6ml kwikpen.
No, Mounjaro is different from Zepbound.
They both contain the same active ingredient (tirzepatide), they’re both GLP-1 agonists, and they’re both available in the form of injections. However, Mounjaro and Zepbound are approved for different indications.
Although it can be used off-label for weight loss, Mounjaro is only FDA-approved for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes.
Zepbound is FDA-approved for weight management as well as sleep apnea treatment.
