What Trulicity costs, and who each price is for
A month of Trulicity costs $25 if your commercial plan covers it. Lilly publishes no cash price for it, and no generic dulaglutide exists to fall back on.

Every price here was read from the manufacturer’s own program terms on 2026-08-13. Those terms say they can change at any time, without notice. The terms themselves state that they expire on 2026-12-31 — after that date, treat every figure on this page as history until it has been read again.
What does Trulicity cost if your plan covers it?
With a covered Trulicity prescription, the card price can be as little as $25 for a one-, two- or three-month fill. Patients can use it for up to 13 fills a year. A month means 28 days and up to four pens, so the count is by pen rather than by calendar. The alternate-funding section bars card use when a plan requires it for coverage, and lets Lilly cut savings when a plan pays only part.

What does Trulicity cost without insurance?
Lilly names no cash price for Trulicity anywhere on its own savings page. It points at LillyDirect for care and stops there. That is the same gap Mounjaro has, from the same company, on a page laid out the same way. Lilly publishes a full dose-by-dose price list for Zepbound and none for either of these two.
There is a second reason the question has no cheap answer, and it is stronger than a missing approval. Dulaglutide has one application at the FDA, and it is a biologics license rather than a new drug application. A biologic has no generic route at all: the only copy the law provides for is a biosimilar, filed separately and judged on its own evidence. So no pharmacy can offer a cheaper version of this molecule, and none is on the way under that name. Liraglutide, approved the older way, has generics.
Eli Lilly and Company publishes no cash price for Trulicity.
Lilly publishes no self-pay price for Trulicity. Its savings page carries the card terms in full and then offers care through LillyDirect without naming a figure, no dose table and no definition of a month. We are not going to fill that in with a pharmacy’s number, because it would move next week and it would not be Lilly’s.
What if you are on Medicare?
Trulicity is not in the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge. Medicare’s covered list names three weight products, and it separately rules out anyone taking a GLP-1 for type 2 diabetes.
Trulicity is a diabetes drug, so the federal Bridge does not reach it. Medicare rules out anyone whose reason for a GLP-1 is type 2 diabetes, and names three weight products as the ones it covers. The card is closed to you as well: Lilly’s terms shut out every government program by name. What is left is your Part D plan’s own formulary, and the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan for spreading what it leaves.

Can you use the card at all?
Eli Lilly and Company sets conditions beyond the exclusion above, and you attest to all of them when you enroll. Getting one wrong is what turns a $25 month into a full-price one.
- You are 18 or older and live in the United States or Puerto Rico.
- You have commercial drug insurance that covers Trulicity, and a prescription for a use the label covers.
- The card is void for Massachusetts residents where an AB-rated generic is available, and for California residents where an FDA-approved therapeutic equivalent is.
- If your plan runs an alternate funding program that pushes you onto the card, the terms bar you from using it.
We do not print a code, and there is none to print. The card is issued by Eli Lilly and Company to you, after you say you meet those terms. Nothing on this page is an offer, and we do not supply, arrange or guarantee any discount.
What makes Trulicity different on price
Trulicity’s card is the joint most generous here and the easiest to switch off. It pays up to $150 a month and $1,950 a year. The terms then name two states where it is void: Massachusetts, if an AB-rated generic is on sale, and California, if an equivalent the FDA has approved is.
Trulicity is dulaglutide from Eli Lilly and Company, approved under BLA 125469. Its price ladder tracks its dose ladder, which starts at 0.75 mg and stops at 4.5 mg. That is why a quote taken in your first month is a quote for a dose you are meant to leave.

- The Trulicity dose schedule reads the ladder off the label, step by step.
- Whether Trulicity has a generic reads the answer off FDA’s approval file, and puts what a pharmacy pays for the copy beside what it pays for the brand.
- What all of these cost, side by side puts this price next to every other one on the site.
