Lyrica happens to be covered by most Medicare and private insurance plans, but many Americans who are uninsured or underinsured are left with a hefty cost burden. This is especially the case because there are currently no generic alternatives to Lyrica.
What’s more, Lyrica is a controlled substance and therefore not available for U.S. patients at international online pharmacies verified and monitored by PharmacyChecker. So how can patients in the U.S. possibly save money on this lifeline medication?

If you cannot afford Lyrica, there may be cheaper therapeutic alternatives that could work for your condition. A therapeutic alternative, while not the same as your prescribed drug, can sometimes work just as well. In consultation with your provider, you might consider medicines such as gabapentin (Neurontin), duloxetine (Cymbalta), and milnacipran (Savella), which are generally far more affordable at your local pharmacy.
