Januvia cost with Medicare

In 2026, a Medicare drug plan (Part D) can charge a deductible of up to $615, and once you've spent $2,100 out of pocket on covered drugs, you pay nothing more for covered drugs that year ($2,400 in 2027) (Medicare.gov). What you pay for Januvia depends on your plan's drug list and your coverage phase. Since January 1, 2026, Medicare pays a negotiated price of $113 for a 30-day supply of Januvia (CMS, checked 2026-10-29). That's what Medicare pays, not your copay. If your income is limited, Extra Help lowers drug costs: in 2026 you pay no more than $5.10 for a generic and $12.65 for a brand-name drug, with income under $23,940 ($32,460 for a married couple) and resources under $18,090 ($36,100 for a couple) (CMS). The free Medicare Prescription Payment Plan spreads costs into monthly payments, but it doesn't lower the total.

Januvia cost with insurance

With private or employer insurance, what you pay for Januvia depends on your plan's drug list, deductible and copay. Your copay depends on your plan. You may also choose Merck's $84.57 cash price instead of using your insurance; Merck's terms say it is not applied to your insurance deductible (Merck).

Medicaid: Your state Medicaid program sets any copay. Ask your pharmacist or state Medicaid office (Medicaid.gov).
