Frequently asked questions
What if my plan drops Mounjaro from its formulary?
The card goes with it. A card covers your share of a covered drug, so a drug your plan no longer lists has no share for it to cover. Our payer coverage pages carry the policy numbers and the dates we read them.
What does Mounjaro cost without insurance?
You pay the retail pharmacy list price. Lilly points self-pay patients to LillyDirect instead.
Can I stack a savings card and a pharmacy discount coupon?
No. You use the manufacturer card or a discount coupon on one fill, never both. For anyone with commercial insurance the card almost always wins.
GLP Chart is an independent comparison site, not a pharmacy and not a medical provider. Card and cash terms are read at the manufacturer's own page and dated. They can change on any day, so confirm yours before your next fill. Chart prices are checked every Monday.
