Can't find Skyrizi at a specialty pharmacy? Here's how to check availability without spending hours on hold — including tools that do the calling for you.
Skyrizi (risankizumab-rzaa) is a specialty biologic available only through specialty pharmacies — meaning you can't just check the shelf at your local drugstore. Confirming whether a specific specialty pharmacy can fill your Skyrizi prescription typically requires a phone call, which often means navigating long hold times and automated phone systems.
This guide explains how to check Skyrizi availability as efficiently as possible, including tools that can do the legwork for you.
Why Checking Skyrizi Availability Is Complicated
Unlike retail medications where GoodRx or a pharmacy app might show real-time inventory, specialty biologic medications like Skyrizi don't have public-facing inventory databases. Each specialty pharmacy manages its own inventory, and availability can vary by location, network agreement, and current demand.
Additionally, specialty pharmacies typically require a valid prescription and insurance authorization before they will even confirm whether they can fill your order. This creates a chicken-and-egg problem: you need to call to check, but calling doesn't always get you a quick answer.
Method 1: Use medfinder (Recommended)
medfinder is a paid service specifically designed for patients who need help finding specialty medications. You enter your medication name, dosage, and location — medfinder calls specialty pharmacies near you on your behalf to find out which ones can fill your prescription, then texts you the results.
For Skyrizi specifically, medfinder focuses on specialty pharmacy networks (not retail pharmacies) and can call multiple pharmacies simultaneously. This is especially useful for patients who:
Have PA approved but can't find a pharmacy to fill the order
Live in a rural area where specialty pharmacy coverage is limited
Are new to Skyrizi and don't know which specialty pharmacies carry it
Have changed insurance plans and need to find a new in-network specialty pharmacy
Method 2: Call Your Insurance Plan's Specialty Pharmacy Line
The back of your insurance card has a member services number. Call and specifically ask: "Which specialty pharmacies are in-network for Skyrizi, and which ones currently service my area?" Many insurance plans contract with a single preferred specialty pharmacy for biologic medications — your plan may have already designated one for you.
Common in-network specialty pharmacies for Skyrizi include: Accredo (Express Scripts), CVS Specialty, Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy, AllianceRx Walgreens Prime, and Optum Specialty.
Method 3: Contact Skyrizi Complete (AbbVie Hub)
By calling 1-866-SKYRIZI and enrolling in Skyrizi Complete, you'll be connected with a case manager who can help coordinate pharmacy dispensing. AbbVie's hub service works with specialty pharmacies to facilitate prescription transfers and can identify which pharmacies are currently able to dispense your specific formulation.
Method 4: Call Specialty Pharmacies Directly
If you prefer to call directly, here are the main specialty pharmacies that carry Skyrizi and their general inquiry numbers:
Accredo (Express Scripts): 1-800-803-2523
CVS Specialty: 1-800-237-2767
Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy: 1-800-501-7768
Optum Specialty: 1-855-427-4682
What Information to Have Ready
Whether you're calling yourself or using a service, have the following information ready:
Medication name: Skyrizi (risankizumab-rzaa)
Formulation and strength: (e.g., 150 mg prefilled pen for psoriasis, or 600 mg/10 mL vial for Crohn's induction)
Insurance name and group/member ID
Prescriber name and NPI number (if available)
PA approval letter or reference number (if PA is already approved)

Frequently Asked Questions
There is no public online inventory database for Skyrizi or other specialty biologics. Availability must be confirmed directly with specialty pharmacies by phone or through a service like medfinder that calls pharmacies on your behalf. Retail pharmacy websites (CVS.com, Walgreens.com) do not show specialty biologic inventory.
Skyrizi is available through specialty pharmacies including Accredo (1-800-803-2523), CVS Specialty (1-800-237-2767), Walgreens Specialty (1-800-501-7768), AllianceRx Walgreens Prime, and Optum Specialty (1-855-427-4682). The right pharmacy for you depends on your insurance plan's in-network designation.
Common reasons specialty pharmacies cannot fill Skyrizi include: the pharmacy is not in-network for your insurance, your prior authorization has not been approved or has lapsed, the prescription has not been sent to that pharmacy, or the specific formulation you need is not stocked at that location. Contact your insurer, prescriber, and AbbVie Skyrizi Complete (1-866-759-7494) to troubleshoot.
