Linzess Coupons in 2025: What You Need to Know

Linzess Coupons in 2025: What You Need to Know

Last Updated on March 31, 2025

Struggling with the cost of Linzess? You’re not alone. Many people rely on this medication to manage irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) or chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC)–but the high price can be a major burden. The good news is that there are ways to lower your costs, no matter your financial situation.

At NeedyMeds, we connect people with savings programs for thousands of medications, including Linzess. Whether you have commercial insurance, Medicare, or no insurance at all, there may be an option to help you afford your prescription.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the best ways to save, including free Linzess coupons, Patient Assistance Programs (PAPs), and other resources.

Why Is Linzess So Expensive?

Linzess is still under patent protection, meaning no lower-cost generic versions are currently available. These patents won’t expire until the early 2030s, but settlements with generic manufacturers have allowed for earlier generic releases.

Teva Pharmaceuticals is one manufacturer that has secured a license to market generic versions in 2029. Sandoz Inc. has a similar agreement allowing them to launch their generic versions of the same dosages starting February 5, 2030. The 72 mcg strength is not included in these agreements, meaning its generic availability may take longer.

Until then, patients must rely on other assistance options if they’re having trouble with the price of Linzess.

Are there any linzess coupons in 2025?

If you have commercial insurance, you may pay as little as $30 per prescription for up to 12 fills a year.

To sign up, visit the Linzess website, fill out a short form, and download your savings card. Show the card at the pharmacy each time you pick up your prescription.

Unfortunately this coupon is only available for those with commercial insurance, but other programs are out there to help with the cost.

Is there a linzess coupon for medicare patients?

With the Medicare Part D Extra Help Program, medicare patients could pay less than $12.15 per prescription.

The application asks about your income and savings to see if you qualify. Some people still get help even if their income is a little too high.

To apply, visit SSA.gov or call 1-800-772-1213 for more information.

How Can I get Linzess for free?

You may be able to get Linzess for free if you’re eligible for myAbbVie Assist, which is an assistance program offered by the manufacturer. This program helps eligible patients who cannot afford their medication by providing it completely free of charge.

Unlike many other manufacturer programs, myAbbVie Assist is open to people on certain medicare plans who meet income requirements. This may be a useful option if you don’t qualify for the Extra Help Program.

For a successful application, you will need to:

  • Fill out an application with your personal and financial information.
  • Provide proof of income, such as a tax return or Social Security benefits statement.
  • Ask your doctor to complete part of the form to confirm your need for Linzess.

Once approved, you can receive free supply of Linzess for a full year, and you may reapply if you still qualify.

Additional Resources & Tips

  • Try non-profit funding organizations, such as the PAN Foundation and HealthWell Foundation. Both carry Linzess in some capacity, but the catch is that funds are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. In order to secure funding, patients must sign up for funds as soon as they become available.
  • Check state programs for medication assistance. Many states help Medicare Part D patients who can’t afford their prescriptions through State Pharmaceutical Assistance Programs (SPAPs). Click here to find a program in your state.
  • Review your Medicare plan if you’re still struggling with costs. Many Medicare beneficiaries aren’t on the best plan for their needs. Get in touch with your local State Health Assistance Plan (SHIP) office. They will help you navigate your current plan and find a new one during open enrollment.
  • Never pay monthly fees for cheaper medications. Some companies charge around $70–$80 per month, claiming they can get you discounted medications. These services often charge for resources you can access for free on NeedyMeds and may not even secure your medication. If you need help with a PAP application, explore these resources instead.
