Learn how to save money on Amphetamine in 2026. Compare cash prices, discover coupons from GoodRx and SingleCare, and find patient assistance programs.
If you've ever looked at the cash price of Amphetamine and felt your stomach drop, you're not alone. Without insurance or a coupon, a 30-day supply of generic Adderall can cost $200 to $450 depending on the formulation and pharmacy. Brand-name versions like Adderall XR and Mydayis can run even higher — over $400 per month.
The good news? There are several ways to bring that cost down significantly. In this guide, we'll break down the real cost of Amphetamine in 2026 and show you how to save using coupons, discount cards, patient assistance programs, and other strategies.
Here's what you can expect to pay at retail (cash) price without any discounts:
These prices vary by pharmacy. Large chain pharmacies (CVS, Walgreens) tend to have higher cash prices than independent pharmacies, warehouse stores (Costco, Sam's Club), or grocery store pharmacies (Kroger, H-E-B).
Prescription discount coupons are the fastest way to save on Amphetamine. These are free to use, work even without insurance, and can save you 50-90% off the cash price.
Here's what you could pay with a coupon for generic Amphetamine mixed salts:
That's a savings of $150-$400 per fill compared to cash price.
Not all coupon programs offer the same price at every pharmacy. It's worth comparing several:
Pro tip: Always compare prices at 2-3 pharmacies before filling. The same medication with the same coupon can vary by $20-$40 depending on the pharmacy.
You don't need a warehouse club membership to use their pharmacy (in most states). Costco and Sam's Club pharmacies often have lower base prices on generics, and you can stack a coupon on top for additional savings.
If you're uninsured, underinsured, or have a low income, patient assistance programs can provide Amphetamine at no cost or significantly reduced cost. These programs are typically offered by drug manufacturers and charitable organizations.
Teva Pharmaceuticals — the largest manufacturer of generic Adderall — runs the Teva Cares Foundation, which provides certain Teva medications at no cost to qualifying patients. Eligibility is based on insurance status and income criteria.

If your doctor has prescribed brand Mydayis, Takeda offers a patient assistance program for eligible patients who cannot afford their medication.
NeedyMeds is a nonprofit that maintains a comprehensive database of patient assistance programs, discount drug cards, and other resources. Search for "Amphetamine" or "Adderall" to find all available programs.
RxAssist is another resource that helps patients and providers find pharmaceutical assistance programs. It's particularly useful for identifying manufacturer-specific programs.
If you have insurance, your copay for generic Amphetamine is likely $10-$50 per month on most commercial plans (Tier 2). However, some patients with high-deductible plans may pay full price until their deductible is met.
Important: In some cases, a coupon price may actually be lower than your insurance copay. Always compare your copay to the coupon price before filling. You can use your coupon instead of insurance if it's cheaper.
Some insurance plans require prior authorization for Amphetamine, especially for adult patients. If your PA is denied, ask your doctor to appeal — many denials are overturned. Your doctor can cite your diagnosis and treatment history as justification.
If you're currently taking a brand-name product (Adderall XR, Mydayis, Dyanavel XR), switching to the generic equivalent can save you hundreds per month. Generic Amphetamine mixed salts contain the same active ingredients and are FDA-approved as therapeutically equivalent.
If your doctor agrees, taking a higher-strength IR tablet and splitting it can sometimes be cost-effective, since higher-strength tablets often cost the same as lower strengths. For example, splitting a 20mg IR tablet into two 10mg doses. Never split extended-release capsules or tablets — this can be dangerous.
Some pharmacies and insurance plans offer lower per-unit pricing for 90-day supplies. If you can find a pharmacy with stable Amphetamine stock, ask about 90-day fill options. Note: some state laws limit Schedule II prescriptions to 30-day supplies, but many states now allow 90-day fills.
Some insurance plans offer lower copays through their preferred mail-order pharmacy. Check with your insurer to see if this is an option. Note that mail-order availability for controlled substances varies by state law and pharmacy policy.
If you need a brand-name Amphetamine product (because generics don't work for you or aren't available), savings options are more limited but still exist:
No one should have to skip their ADHD medication because of cost. Between prescription coupons, patient assistance programs, insurance optimization, and smart pharmacy shopping, most patients can find a way to make Amphetamine affordable.
