Common questions about Anoro’s cost

Here are some common questions and answers about Anoro.

Why is Anoro so expensive?

Brand-name drugs, like Anoro, can be expensive because of the studies needed to test how safe and effective they are.

Makers of a brand-name drug can patent and sell their drug for up to 20 years. When the patent for a brand-name drug expires, other drugmakers can make and sell generic versions. 

This competition may help keep costs of generic medications lower. Also, generic medications contain the same active ingredients as brand-name medications. So they don’t require the same testing, which can be costly.

If you’d like to know more about the cost differences between brand-name and generic drugs, talk with your doctor or pharmacist.

What is the cost of Anoro with insurance?

If you have insurance, your cost of Anoro can depend on several factors, such as your particular plan benefits, including your drug copay amount, the quantity you’re prescribed, the pharmacy you use, and whether you qualify for any savings programs.

You can talk with your insurance provider or pharmacist to find out how much Anoro will cost with your insurance plan.

What is the cost of Anoro without insurance?

Typically, the cost of Anoro is higher without insurance. But you may be able to lower the cost of Anoro by using coupons, like the ones in the “Coupons” section on this page. You may also want to contact several pharmacies to compare the prices for this drug.

Your doctor or pharmacist may also be able to help you find ways to lower the cost of Anoro if you don’t have insurance.
