How to Check Rezdiffra Availability Without Picking Up the Phone

When your doctor prescribes Rezdiffra (Resmetirom), your first instinct might be to call your local pharmacy. But here's the thing — Rezdiffra is a specialty medication that isn't typically stocked at retail pharmacies like CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid. It's distributed through a limited network of specialty pharmacies, which means checking availability requires a slightly different approach.

The good news? You don't have to spend your afternoon on hold. Here's how to check if a pharmacy has Rezdiffra in stock — without making a single phone call.

Why Rezdiffra Is Hard to Find at Regular Pharmacies

Rezdiffra was approved by the FDA in March 2024 for noncirrhotic NASH/MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis. As a new specialty medication, it's distributed through a limited specialty pharmacy network rather than traditional retail pharmacies. This is common for high-cost, condition-specific drugs that require special handling, storage, or patient support.

How to Check Stock Without Calling

1. Use Medfinder

Medfinder is built specifically to help patients find medications that are hard to locate. Simply search for Rezdiffra, enter your zip code, and see which pharmacies near you have it available — or can order it for you. It's free, fast, and doesn't require an account.

Medfinder is especially useful for specialty medications like Rezdiffra that don't show up in standard pharmacy inventory searches.

2. Check Your Specialty Pharmacy's Online Portal

If your doctor or insurance company has already connected you with a specialty pharmacy, most of them offer online patient portals or mobile apps where you can:

• Track your prescription status
• See estimated delivery dates
• Request refills
• Message your pharmacy team directly

Major specialty pharmacies like Accredo, CVS Specialty, OptumRx Specialty, and AllianceRx Walgreens Pharmacy all have digital tools to check your order status without calling.

3. Use GoodRx to Check Pricing and Availability

GoodRx shows pharmacy-level pricing for many medications and can give you an idea of which pharmacies carry Rezdiffra. While GoodRx is primarily a pricing tool, it often indicates whether a pharmacy has a drug available or can order it. Keep in mind that for specialty drugs like Rezdiffra, GoodRx may have limited listings.

4. Contact Madrigal Patient Support Online

Madrigal Pharmaceuticals offers a patient support program that can help coordinate your specialty pharmacy access. You can reach them online at madrigalpatientsupport.com or by calling 1-877-219-7770. Their team can tell you which specialty pharmacies in your area are dispensing Rezdiffra and help facilitate the transfer of your prescription.

If You Prefer to Call

Sometimes a phone call is the fastest route. If you'd rather speak to someone directly, here are some tips:

• Call your specialty pharmacy first — If one has already been assigned by your insurance, start there. They'll have the most accurate information about your prescription status and inventory.
• Ask about lead time — Even if Rezdiffra isn't on the shelf, specialty pharmacies can often order it and have it shipped to you within a few days.
• Call during off-peak hours — Early morning (right when they open) or mid-afternoon tend to have shorter wait times.
• Have your prescription details ready — Your name, date of birth, prescriber name, and insurance information will speed up the process.

Once You Find It

After you've confirmed a pharmacy has Rezdiffra available (or can order it for you), here are a few next steps:

• Confirm prior authorization — Most insurance plans require prior authorization for Rezdiffra. Make sure this has been approved before the pharmacy processes your order. See our savings guide for details on coverage and cost assistance.
• Ask about delivery — Many specialty pharmacies offer home delivery, often at no extra charge. This can save you a trip and ensure you get your medication on schedule.
• Set up auto-refills — To avoid gaps in treatment, ask your pharmacy about automatic refill programs. Consistent dosing is important for Rezdiffra to work effectively.
• Know your cost — Rezdiffra costs approximately $3,950–$4,116 per month at cash price. With the Madrigal Copay Savings Card, eligible commercially insured patients may pay as little as $0. Check our money-saving tips for more options.

Final Thoughts

Checking whether a pharmacy has Rezdiffra doesn't have to mean sitting on hold for 30 minutes. Tools like Medfinder, specialty pharmacy portals, and manufacturer support programs make it possible to track down your medication from your phone or computer.
