Common questions about AndroGel’s cost

Here are some common questions and answers about AndroGel.

How much does AndroGel cost per month?

The amount you’ll pay per month for AndroGel depends on your treatment plan and other factors. For example, the price of AndroGel with insurance differs from the price of AndroGel without insurance or discounts.

If you have insurance, your out-of-pocket cost will depend on whether the drug is covered by your plan and your copay structure. For example, some insurance plans have fixed copays, while other plans have copays that vary.

To find out how much AndroGel costs per month, check with your insurance provider. If you don’t have insurance, talk with the staff at your pharmacy or doctor’s office. They can connect you with resources that may help lower the cost of AndroGel.

How much does AndroGel cost without insurance?

The price you’ll pay for AndroGel if you don’t have insurance can vary based on several factors, such as:

• the quantity you’re prescribed (such as a 90-day or 30-day supply)
• your dosage
• whether you use cost-saving coupons, like the ones in the “Coupons” section on this page
• whether you apply and qualify for any available savings program
• the pharmacy you use

But typically, the cost of AndroGel is higher without insurance.

One way to find out what a medication will cost without insurance is to search for the list price on the drug manufacturer’s website. But keep in mind that your cost may be less than the list price, especially if you use a drug coupon or qualify for an assistance program.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist to learn more about ways to lower your cost of AndroGel.
