Why Checking Reyvow Stock Is Getting Harder

Reyvow (lasmiditan) is being permanently discontinued by Eli Lilly. U.S. distribution ends May 31, 2026. As supply dwindles, more patients are showing up at pharmacies only to be told the medication is out of stock. Calling pharmacy after pharmacy is exhausting — especially when you're dealing with a migraine.

The good news: there are digital tools that can help you check availability without picking up the phone. This guide shows you how.

For background on why Reyvow is disappearing from shelves, read our complete explanation of the Reyvow discontinuation.

Method 1: Use MedFinder

MedFinder is a free tool designed to help patients find medications that are hard to locate. It aggregates pharmacy availability data and shows you which pharmacies near your zip code have Reyvow in stock — or had it recently.

How to use it:

1. Go to medfinder.com
2. Search for "Reyvow" or "lasmiditan"
3. Enter your zip code
4. Review results showing nearby pharmacies with stock information

MedFinder is especially useful for discontinued medications like Reyvow because it tracks remaining inventory across multiple pharmacy networks.

Method 2: Check Your Pharmacy's App or Website

Many major pharmacy chains have apps and websites that show prescription status and stock availability:

CVS Pharmacy

The CVS app and website let you manage prescriptions and check order status. While they don't always show real-time stock levels for controlled substances, you can submit a transfer request and the pharmacy will confirm availability.

Walgreens

The Walgreens app allows you to manage prescriptions and request refills. If the medication is out of stock at your location, the app may suggest nearby Walgreens stores that have it.

Rite Aid

Rite Aid's website and app allow prescription management. You can check if your refill is ready, which indirectly tells you if stock is available.

Walmart Pharmacy

Walmart's pharmacy portal lets you manage prescriptions online. You can request a transfer to a different Walmart location if your usual store is out.

Independent Pharmacies

Many independent pharmacies don't have apps, but some use platforms like PocketRx or mscripts that offer similar functionality. Call or check the pharmacy's website to see if they offer digital tools.

Method 3: Use GoodRx or RxSaver to Check Pricing and Availability

While primarily known as coupon tools, GoodRx and RxSaver can indirectly indicate whether a pharmacy stocks a medication. If a pharmacy shows pricing for Reyvow on these platforms, it likely carries the medication — though stock can change quickly for a discontinued drug.

Method 4: Ask Your Doctor's Office to Check

Your prescribing doctor's office often has direct lines to pharmacies and can check stock on your behalf. When your doctor sends in the prescription electronically, many e-prescribing systems show real-time availability at local pharmacies. Ask your doctor to send the prescription to a pharmacy that has confirmed stock.

Method 5: Contact Your Insurance Company

Your insurance company's pharmacy benefits team can sometimes tell you which in-network pharmacies have filled Reyvow prescriptions recently. This won't guarantee current stock, but it narrows your search to pharmacies that are actively dispensing the medication.

Tips for Maximizing Your Chances

• Check multiple pharmacy types. Chain pharmacies, independent pharmacies, and hospital outpatient pharmacies may all carry Reyvow.
• Try specialty pharmacies. Some specialty pharmacies focus on harder-to-find medications and may have Reyvow in stock longer than retail chains.
• Act quickly. When you find a pharmacy with stock, fill your prescription immediately. With a discontinued medication, what's available today may be gone tomorrow.
• Ask about both strengths. Reyvow comes in 50 mg and 100 mg tablets. A pharmacy might have one strength but not the other.
• Consider a wider search radius. If pharmacies near you are out, expanding your search to a 25–50 mile radius may turn up results.

What to Do If You Can't Find Reyvow Anywhere

If your search comes up empty, it may be time to talk to your doctor about alternative migraine medications. Options like Ubrelvy (ubrogepant), Nurtec ODT (rimegepant), and Zavzpret (zavegepant) are CGRP-based alternatives that remain available and don't have the same supply issues.

Your doctor can also help you transition smoothly. For a full overview of what Reyvow is and how it compares, see our guide on Reyvow uses, dosage, and what you need to know.

The Bottom Line

You don't have to call every pharmacy in town to find Reyvow. Tools like MedFinder, pharmacy apps, and coupon platforms can help you check availability digitally. But with Reyvow's permanent discontinuation approaching, the window to fill prescriptions is narrowing. Start searching now, and have a backup plan ready with your doctor.
