Invokamet costs $575-$800/month without insurance. Learn how to save with coupons, the Janssen savings card, patient assistance programs, and more in 2026.
If you've seen the price tag on Invokamet, you know it's not cheap. Without insurance or a savings card, a 30-day supply of this type 2 diabetes medication costs $575 to $800 depending on the strength and pharmacy. That's nearly $7,000 to $9,600 per year.
But here's what most people don't know: there are multiple ways to dramatically reduce what you pay for Invokamet — in some cases, all the way down to $0 per month. This guide covers every savings option available in 2026.
Invokamet is a brand-name combination of Canagliflozin and Metformin, made by Janssen Pharmaceuticals. There is currently no generic version, and generics aren't expected until around 2029. That means you're paying brand-name prices no matter what.
Here's what you'll typically pay at retail without any discounts:
These prices vary by pharmacy, which is why it's worth checking multiple locations. But the real savings come from the programs and strategies below.
The best deal for most patients is the Janssen CarePath Savings Program. This manufacturer-sponsored copay card can reduce your monthly cost to $0.
How it works:

How to enroll:
This is by far the most significant savings available. If you have commercial insurance, start here.
If you don't have insurance or the manufacturer savings card doesn't apply to your situation, prescription discount cards can still save you money. These are free to use and available at most pharmacies.
GoodRx shows Invokamet prices as low as $576 for a 30-day supply at select pharmacies. GoodRx Gold members may find even lower prices. Simply search for "Invokamet" on goodrx.com and show the coupon at your pharmacy.
SingleCare offers Invokamet for around $587 for 60 tablets (150/1000 mg). Their coupons are accepted at most major pharmacy chains including CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart.
Several other discount card programs cover Invokamet:
While these coupons won't bring the price down to $0 like the manufacturer card, they can save you $50 to $200+ compared to the full retail price.
If you're uninsured, underinsured, or can't afford your copay, you may qualify for free Invokamet through a patient assistance program.
The JJPAF provides free Janssen medications — including Invokamet — to patients who meet eligibility requirements.

How to apply:
This program can save you the full $575 to $800 per month if you qualify.
Many insurance plans offer mail-order pharmacy benefits where you can get a 90-day supply of Invokamet for less than three separate 30-day fills. This is especially helpful if your plan has a flat copay per fill — you effectively get three months for the price of one or two copays.
Invokamet combines Canagliflozin and Metformin. If cost is the main barrier, talk to your doctor about taking them as separate prescriptions:
Taking two separate pills instead of one combination tablet may be worth it if it significantly reduces your out-of-pocket costs.
If cost remains a barrier, your doctor might recommend switching to a similar SGLT2/Metformin combination that your insurance covers better:

Many states have pharmaceutical assistance programs for residents who don't qualify for Medicaid but can't afford their medications. Your state's department of health website or a social worker at your doctor's office can help you explore these options.
These nonprofit websites maintain databases of every patient assistance program, copay card, and discount available for specific medications. Search for "Invokamet" on needymeds.org or rxassist.org to find programs you might have missed.
No one should have to choose between managing their diabetes and paying their bills. While Invokamet is expensive at retail, the Janssen CarePath Savings Program, patient assistance programs, and prescription discount cards can make it much more affordable — or even free.
Start with the manufacturer savings card if you have commercial insurance. If you don't qualify, check JJPAF for free medication. And if you're still struggling, talk to your doctor about alternatives or taking the two ingredients separately.
