Don't qualify for the card? Cheaper ways to get tirzepatide

The $25 card needs commercial insurance that covers Mounjaro for type 2 diabetes. If that isn't you, these online programs prescribe tirzepatide (brand Zepbound or compounded) and ship it to your door. Compounded tirzepatide is not FDA-approved. Each card shows the price we checked and what we found on the company.

The Mounjaro $25 savings card: who qualifies

The card, which people also search for as the Mounjaro coupon or copay card, is Lilly's manufacturer savings program for Mounjaro. You activate it on Lilly's site; it is a card number you give the pharmacy, not a promo code ^[1].

• Insurance: you must have commercial drug insurance ^[1].
• Diagnosis: the prescription must be "for an approved use consistent with FDA-approved product labeling" ^[1]. Mounjaro's approved uses are blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes for ages 10 and up, and lowering the risk of major heart events in high-risk adults with type 2 diabetes ^[8].
• Excluded: anyone in a state, federal or government-funded program, including Medicaid, Medicare, Part D, Medicare Advantage, Medigap, DoD, VA, TRICARE and state drug assistance ^[1].
• Age and residence: 18 or older, living in the US or Puerto Rico ^[1].
• Form: savings apply only to the Mounjaro single-dose pen ^[1].
• Other limits: a signed HIPAA authorization is required; plans in alternate funding programs that require the card are excluded; the card cannot be combined with other offers; in Massachusetts savings do not apply if an AB-rated generic equivalent is available, and in California if an FDA-approved therapeutic equivalent is available ^[1].

What the card pays, worked through

Plan covers Mounjaro. You may pay as little as $25, with savings capped at $150 per 1-month fill, $300 per 2-month fill and $450 per 3-month fill, and $1,950 a calendar year ^[1]. If your copay is $100, the card pays $75 and you pay $25. If your copay is $300, the card pays its $150 maximum and you pay $150. Once the card has paid $1,950 in a year, savings stop until January.

Plan does not cover it. You may pay as low as $499 for a 1-month fill, with savings up to $647 a month and $8,411 a year ^[1]. Either way, the card covers up to 13 fills a calendar year ^[1].

Expiration. "Card expires and savings end on 12/31/2026" ^[1]. Lilly may change or end the program at any time without notice ^[1]. If you start Medicare or other government coverage, call the program at 1-844-805-5807 to stop using the card ^[1].

No insurance: LillyDirect and GoodRx

LillyDirect. Lilly sells Mounjaro single-dose pens for self-pay only, starting at $499 a month at every strength from 2.5 mg to 15 mg, with a prescription ^[3]. Prescriptions are filled through Amazon Pharmacy, Fuze Health, Gifthealth or Walmart Pharmacy, and LillyDirect says the purchase is FSA and HSA eligible ^[3]. Lilly points uninsured patients to this option on its savings page ^[1].

GoodRx and other discount cards. GoodRx lists Mounjaro as low as $1,087.30 for a carton of 4 pens, which it says is 19% off an average retail price of $1,348.39 (checked Oct 25 2026) ^[7]. That is more than double the LillyDirect price ^[3], and about the same as the $1,112.16 list price ^[2]. GoodRx also says there is no generic Mounjaro ^[7]. Lilly's card cannot be combined with other offers ^[1], so a discount card is a cash alternative, not an add-on.

Lilly Cares and Mounjaro patient assistance

Lilly Cares is a nonprofit that gives some Lilly medicines free for up to 12 months to qualifying US patients with financial need ^[23]. On Oct 25 2026 Mounjaro was not on its list of available medications; the list includes Trulicity and several insulins ^[6]. So a "Mounjaro patient assistance application" through Lilly Cares is not an option today. Lilly Support Services, 1-800-545-5979, handles questions about other Mounjaro support ^[1].

If you are prescribed a medicine that is on the list, these are the rules Lilly Cares publishes ^[5]:

• Permanent US resident (including Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands), with a prescription for a Lilly Cares medicine ^[5].
• Not enrolled in Medicaid, full Low Income Subsidy (Extra Help) or VA benefits ^[5].
• Insurance by medicine group: no insurance or Medicare Part D for most groups; some groups also accept Medicare Part B without supplemental coverage ^[5].
• Household income limits, based on 2024 federal poverty guidelines: 300% for Group 1 ($45,180 for one person), 400% for Group 2 ($60,240) and 500% for Groups 3 and 4 ($75,300) ^[5].
• To apply: fill out the application online or on paper, have your prescriber complete their section and send a prescription, then submit online, by fax to 1-844-431-6650 or by mail. Call 1-800-545-6962 for a paper form ^[5].
• Enrollment generally lasts 12 months, or to the end of the calendar year with Part D, and you must reapply ^[5].

Mounjaro coupon for weight loss: what applies

Mounjaro is not approved for weight loss; Lilly's own FAQ says "Mounjaro is not a weight loss drug" ^[2]. Without type 2 diabetes, a Mounjaro prescription is outside its approved uses, so the savings card, which needs an approved use, will not apply ^{[1] [8]}.

Zepbound contains the same drug, tirzepatide, and is approved to reduce excess weight and keep it off in adults with obesity, or overweight with a weight-related condition, and to treat moderate to severe sleep apnea in adults with obesity ^[9]. On LillyDirect, Zepbound vials and KwikPens cost $299 (2.5 mg), $399 (5 mg) and $449 (7.5 to 15 mg) a month when you refill within 45 days; late refills cost $499 at 7.5 mg and $699 at 10 to 15 mg ^[4]. The Zepbound label says using it with other tirzepatide products is not recommended ^[9]. See the Zepbound savings card, Zepbound cost and Mounjaro vs Zepbound.

Compounded tirzepatide costs less in the programs we track, but it is not Mounjaro. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, and FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness or quality before they are sold ^[10]. Compare programs on compounded tirzepatide and cheapest tirzepatide.

Medicare and Medicaid

The savings card excludes all government plans ^[1]. With Medicare Part D, Lilly says about 8 in 10 patients pay $0 to $50 for a 28-day supply, and it lists a 2027 Part D yearly out-of-pocket maximum of $2,400; with Extra Help, branded drugs cost up to $12.65 a month ^[2]. Lilly says Medicaid copays average about $5 to $11 a month, depending on the state ^[2]. See GLP-1s and Medicare and Medicaid GLP-1 coverage by state.

Programs that prescribe tirzepatide legally

These are clean or caution-rated programs from our cheapest tirzepatide list, with the prices and dates we checked. The brand programs prescribe Zepbound for weight loss; for type 2 diabetes, ask your own clinician or a visit service about Mounjaro. The tirzepatide coupon page covers both Lilly cards side by side.
