Prescription Drug Savings

Prescription drug coverage is an Essential Health Benefit under the Affordable Care Act, and prescription drug coverage must be included in all Affordable Care Act-qualified plans. Copays, coinsurance, and deductibles for covered prescription drugs count against the maximum out-of-pocket limit for Affordable Care Act plans. Medicare beneficiaries can enroll in a Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan or separate Medicare drug coverage (Part D) to receive coverage for outpatient medications.

However, individuals may (1) be uninsured for outpatient prescription drug coverage; (2) be taking a drug that is not included in their plan’s formulary; (3) be looking for a more inexpensive way to buy a medication than through their drug plan; or (4) not be able to afford a particular medication.

The following sections of this page provide tips and information on how to save money on prescription drugs.

Consider Switching To Generics Or Other Lower-Cost Drugs

There may be generic or less-expensive brand-name drugs that would work just as well as the ones you're taking now. Talk to your doctor to find out if these are an option for you. You might also be able to lower prescription costs by using mail-order pharmacies.

The Trump Rx.gov Website And How It has Evolved

TrumpRx.gov is a federal prescription‑drug pricing portal launched early in 2026 to give Americans access to lower, manufacturer‑direct cash prices on 43 brand-name medications. It began after the administration reached voluntary Most‑Favored‑Nation (MFN) pricing agreements with five participating manufacturers (Astra Zeneca, Eli Lilly, EMD Serono, Novo Nordisk, and Pfizer).

The drugs initially included in TrumpRx.gov are high‑cost, high‑impact therapies, including:

• GLP‑1 medications for diabetes and weight loss (e.g., Wegovy, Ozempic, and Zepbound)
• Fertility medications (e.g., Gonal‑F and other gonadotropins)
• Specialty drugs for chronic or complex conditions
• Select oncology, immunology, and endocrine therapies (varied by manufacturer)

The launch list focused on medications where MFN pricing could produce dramatic price reductions, sometimes exceeding 80–90% off typical U.S. retail prices.

Since launch, it has grown into a national price‑comparison tool that lists discounted brand‑name drugs, hundreds of generics, and integrated pricing from platforms such as Amazon Pharmacy, Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus Drugs, and GoodRx. As of early June 2026 over 600 medications are listed on TrumpRx.gov and additional information is being added constantly. Medications are listed by name, and prices for listed medications are shown by zip code. The site now serves as both a transparency engine and a competitive pressure tool, pushing pharmacies and manufacturers to offer more affordable cash prices.

Looking ahead, TrumpRx.gov is expected to expand as more manufacturers participate, more drug categories are added, and real‑time pricing integrations deepen. Analysts anticipate it will evolve into a central benchmark for national drug pricing and a key resource for uninsured and under‑insured Americans seeking affordable medications. Those covered by insurance should also check the prices of their medications and may find that it is less expensive to buy a drug using a TrumpRx coupon than it is to buy a medication through their plan.

NOTE: TrumpRx is a national prescription discount program that helps people find lower cash prices on medications at participating pharmacies. It is not insurance and can be used by anyone — individuals, families, people with employer coverage, and Medicare beneficiaries. Users simply search for their medication by zip code, compare discounted prices, and show the coupon at the pharmacy to pay the reduced cash rate. Because it’s a discount program, not a health plan, purchases made with TrumpRx.gov do not count toward insurance deductibles or out‑of‑pocket limits (for plans like Part D drug plans, ACA, and group insurance plans). Individuals who have insurance should check prices on TrumpRx.gov, recognize that medications don’t count against deductibles or out-of-pocket limits and determine whether they would save money by using a TrumpRx coupon.

Please confirm details with trusted sources, as policies and program features are being updated constantly.

Other Drug Discount Programs

As mentioned in the above section, at least some of the features of other drug discount plans are being integrated into TrumpRx.gov. However, these other drug discount plans are still available and some of the programs like GoodRx are adding new and expanded features, e.g., enhanced subscription plans. CEOs including the CEO of Good RX and Mark Cuban of Cost Plus Drugs are cooperating and integrating at least some of their features into TrumpRx.gov, but these programs still have features that are at least not yet fully integrated with and available on TrumpRx.gov.

You can often save by buying prescriptions at GoodRx, Single Care, Blink Health, or by using this (or some other) free Medication Savings Program card. See this article from Healthline for their choice of The 12 Best Prescription Discounts To Help You Save.

Pharmaceutical Company Assistance Programs

Find out whether there’s a Pharmaceutical Assistance Program (these are programs offered by drug manufacturers) that can lower prescription costs for the drugs you take. Some of these programs are exclusively for people with Medicare Part D plans, whereas others are only offered to those with private insurance and are not available for people on Medicare.

State Pharmaceutical Assistance Programs.

Many states and the U.S. Virgin Islands offer help paying for prescriptions, drug plan premiums and/or other drug costs. Find out if your state has a State Pharmaceutical Assistance Program.
