22-Year-Old With Chronic Asthma Died After Inhaler Price Went From $66 to $539: Lawsuit

73. Use GoodRx and get the generic version.

If you have a Walgreens around, it's about $140. (CVS might also be giving you the brand name, instead of the generous - so that might be the reason for the price change - make sure you check.)

Probably not for this one - but for the mid-range drugs, Costco member prices are often a lot cheaper than buying them through insurance (you don't have to have one near you - they have a mail order plan.
You should also check with your insurance company to see what the issue is. It may have been taken off the formulary, or switched to a step therapy drug - so the price may be full price, with no insurance discount. In that case, work with your doctor and the insurance company to prove you've gone through the required other meds to qualify for this one, it you may have to switch meds. Pretty sure it was this med (different brand) that was switched to a step therapy for my spouse, and she's already been through about a zillion other meds before starting it. Once the doctor completed the proper form, she got the need at the insurance price.
