Nuvigil Cost

My insurance will no longer pay for my Nuvigil 250mg. It costs up to $1200. Month. They use to to pay for it. They will no longer cover ## Hello, Penny! How are you? They might not cover the name brand, now that a generic is available. Of course, that doesn't help, when no one has the generic in stock, or if it isn't on the general market, yet.

I've used a discount card for Nuvigil and gotten the first month free, and then the next month came out to $25 or so. This last month it was $120!

This is just my theory from expe...

Nuvugil, Provigil's "cousin gave me a year long discount card so with my insurance it would cost no more than $15 a month. BUT Nuvigil gave me whopping headaches where as Provilgil did not. Can you imagine my surprise to find my 20% of total was WAY over $100.00!!!!!!!!!!! Can I get a discount card for Nuvugil? ## It seems that they have an assistance program for low-income individuals that don't have prescription coverage. You can call them for more information at 877-237-4881 Learn more Provigil details here. You can reach the call center from 9am to 8pm EST.
