The Duavee savings card can bring an eligible fill down to as little as $25. Pfizer contributes up to $110 per fill, with a $1,440 maximum per person per calendar year, and the current offer expires December 31, 2026. You need private commercial insurance that covers Duavee. Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, VA, and cash-paying patients are excluded.

Here’s the part almost nobody writes down. There’s a fourth group that gets shut out, and it isn’t an insurance type at all — it’s a piece of plan design most women have never heard of. Pfizer’s own terms say this card can’t be used with it. A third of the largest employers in the country have one.

We’ll show you how to find out in four questions whether it applies to you. And we’ll do the arithmetic Pfizer doesn’t publish: the exact number your cost has to be under before “$25” is even possible.

Eligibility terms from Pfizer’s Menopause Hormone Therapies Savings Card terms and conditions, read July 28, 2026.

This card may be for you if:

You’re 18 or older, you have private commercial prescription insurance, your plan covers Duavee, and what you owe after insurance is more than $25.

It isn’t for you if:

You’re on any government health program, you’re paying cash, or your plan has denied Duavee. Every one of those situations has a real route further down this page.

What we checked, and what we couldn’t

On July 28, 2026, we:

What we couldn’t check:what you owe after insurance, your formulary tier, or whether your plan runs a copay adjustment program. Nobody can check those from the outside. That’s what the four-question script below is for — it’s the part of this page we’d use ourselves.

We loaded Pfizer’s enrollment form and confirmed it displayed the current terms. We did not complete an enrollment or submit a pharmacy claim, so we can’t tell you how any individual claim will process.


How does the Duavee savings card work in 2026?

The Duavee savings card is Pfizer’s copay assistance program for Duavee (conjugated estrogens/bazedoxifene). Eligible patients with commercial prescription insurance may pay as little as $25 per fill, with Pfizer contributing a maximum of $110 per fill and $1,440 per patient per calendar year. The current offer expires December 31, 2026.

One thing to clear up first, because it sends a lot of people to the wrong page. Current public enrollment for Duavee runs through Pfizer’s combined menopause card— the Menopause Hormone Therapies (MHT) by Pfizer Savings Card. Pfizer’s savings summary presents five treatment options under one card: Duavee, Premarin tablets, Premarin Vaginal Cream, Estring, and Prempro. If you’re hunting for a Duavee-only enrollment page, that’s why you can’t find one.

The four numbers that decide everything

NumberWhat it actually means
$25Pfizer's advertised 'as little as' amount for an eligible fill. Not a flat price and not a guarantee.
$110The maximum card benefit for a Duavee fill. Your fill may draw less.
$1,440The maximum benefit per patient, from your enrollment date through December 31 of that year.
Dec 31, 2026When the current offer expires. Pfizer can amend or end it before then.

Pfizer MHT Savings Card terms and conditions and consumer savings page, both read July 28, 2026.

Four more rules from the same terms, because these are the ones that cause trouble at the counter:

What this card is, in plain terms

It’s a copay reducer. Your insurance processes first. The card then reduces what’s left. It is not insurance. It is not a discount card like GoodRx. And it is not Pfizer’s free-medicine program — that’s a separate program with the opposite eligibility rules, covered further down.

Most importantly: it cannot make your plan cover a drug your plan doesn’t cover.If insurance says no to Duavee, there’s nothing for the card to reduce.


How much will I actually pay with the Duavee savings card?

The Duavee savings card can reduce a fill to $25 only when the amount owed after primary insurance is $135 or less. Because Pfizer’s contribution is capped at $110 per fill, a higher amount leaves the patient responsible for the difference — an amount of $200 leaves roughly $90 due rather than $25.

“$25” is Pfizer’s advertised “as little as” figure. It is not a flat price.

Throughout this section, “what you owe after insurance”means whatever your plan leaves you responsible for on a Duavee fill. That might be a flat copay, a percentage coinsurance, or the full amount because you haven’t met your deductible yet. The card works the same way against all three.

Why $135 is the break point

Pfizer’s advertised patient amount is as little as $25. Pfizer’s maximum Duavee benefit is $110 per fill. Add them together and you get $135. At or below $135, the card can bring the fill down to $25. Above $135, even the maximum contribution leaves more than $25 due.

What that looks like at each level

Estimated out-of-pocket after insurance and Pfizer card — Duavee 0.45 mg/20 mg, 30 tablets
What you owe after insuranceMaximum card benefitEstimated amount dueCould reach $25?
$20$0$20No
$50$25$25Yes
$100$75$25Yes
$135$110$25Yes — break point
$150$110$40No
$200$110$90No
$250$110$140No

Original calculation by The HRT Index using Pfizer’s published $110 per-fill maximum. These are estimates. They assume an eligible fill, that primary insurance processed, that enough annual benefit remains, and that no prohibited overlapping arrangement applies. $110 is a ceiling, not a promised payment.

The formula, if you want to run your own number

Estimated card benefit = the smallest of these three: (what you owe after insurance − $25), but never below $0 $110 whatever annual benefit you have left Estimated amount due = what you owe after insurance − estimated card benefit

You need one number we can’t give you

What you owe after insurance. We don’t know it, and neither does any other page you’ll find today. Anyone quoting a single “Duavee costs $X with insurance” figure is guessing. Three ways to get it:

  1. Log into your insurance portal and look Duavee up in the drug pricing tool
  2. Call the member services number on your insurance card
  3. Ask the pharmacy to run the prescription through and tell you the amount due before you complete the purchase

Then come back to that table. Your answer is one row.

Know your number? If what you owe after insurance is under $135, this card can get you to $25.

No fee, no income check, and no application to wait on.

Why do some pages still show $70 and an $840 yearly limit?

Older Duavee savings card terms of $70 per prescription and $840 per calendar year, with a December 31, 2024 expiration, are still displayed on pricing sites and coupon directories. Pfizer’s current published terms are $110 per fill and $1,440 per calendar year, expiring December 31, 2026.

If you’ve been searching for a while, you’ve hit conflicting numbers. You’re not confused. The pages are wrong.

What happened when we checked the links

We opened the three web addresses different sites publish for this card. Here’s exactly what we found on July 28, 2026:

AddressWhat happened

The third link deserves a warning.Its search result preview still reads “DUAVEE is currently out of stock” and “Offer expires 12/31/2024.” Neither line appeared on the live page we landed on. It’s a retired page whose old text is still sitting in search listings. If that’s what you saw: Duavee remains FDA approved and appears in Pfizer’s current menopause portfolio.

The stale numbers are on sites you’d trust

On GoodRx’s Duavee page, the manufacturer program box lists savings of $70 per prescription, $840 per calendar year, up to 12 uses. A few lines away on the same page, its terms summary says $110 per fill and $1,440 per year. Both can’t be right. Pfizer says $110 and $1,440.

RxPharmacyCoupons publishes a page headlined as a 2026 manufacturer coupon that lists “$70 per month, 12 uses, $840 per calendar year” — the expired terms, under a current-year headline. RxGocarries a Duavee savings page with older terms and a support number Pfizer’s current materials no longer list.

Use these numbers: $110 per fill, $1,440 per year, expires December 31, 2026.If a pharmacist or a website quotes you $70 or $840, ask them to re-run it against Pfizer’s current card.

Can I use the Duavee savings card if my plan has a copay accumulator or maximizer?

Pfizer’s terms state the Menopause Hormone Therapies Savings Card cannot be combined with a copay accumulator or maximizer arrangement. In plans using these programs, manufacturer assistance is not credited toward the enrollee’s deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Whether a specific Duavee claim is subject to one depends on the individual plan.

This card is not a universal $25 coupon. If your Duavee claim falls under a copay accumulator or maximizer, Pfizer’s own terms say the card can’t be combined with that arrangement — which can make it unusable for you.Not because you did anything wrong. Because of how your plan was built. Your plan won’t call it by these names.

What a copay accumulator does

A copay accumulator lets manufacturer assistance reduce what you hand over at the pharmacy — while not crediting that manufacturer-funded money toward your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum. Only what youpersonally paid counts. So the assistance runs out, and you’re still facing the full deductible you thought you’d been chipping away at.

What a copay maximizer does

A maximizer generally adjusts your cost-sharing obligation so the plan or its vendor can capture the manufacturer’s assistance across the benefit year. You may pay little or nothing at the counter — while moving no closer to your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum.

How common is this?

Not rare.

Does your state protect you?

Partly. Maybe. A 2025 National Conference of State Legislatures summary reported laws addressing these programs in at least 25 states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico. New Jersey enacted an additional accumulator law in January 2026. Some state protections carry conditions tied to whether a generic alternative exists — and Duavee has no FDA-approved generic, which may satisfy one condition. It still depends on your plan type and every other requirement in the law.

The catch that matters more than any of it: State insurance laws generally don’t reach self-funded employer plans — and in KFF’s 2025 employer survey, 67% of covered workers were in one. So “my state banned accumulators” does not mean “my plan can’t run one.”

Where you actually stand, by plan type

Your plan typeCan this card apply?What state accumulator laws reach
Fully insured employer plan (employer buys coverage from an insurer)Yes, if the plan covers Duavee and no adjustment program applies to your claimState law can reach these plans
Self-funded employer plan (employer pays claims itself)Same conditionsGenerally exempt from state insurance mandates
Marketplace or individual planYes, if it covers DuaveeState law can reach these plans
FEHB (federal employees)OPM says FEHB members may take part in pharmaceutical copay reimbursement programs. Pfizer's terms and your FEHB plan's rules still control.Not state-regulated
Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, VANo -- excluded by Pfizer's termsNot applicable

Assembled from Pfizer’s card terms, KFF’s 2024 and 2025 employer surveys, NCSL’s 2025 copayment adjustment summary, and OPM’s published FEHB guidance, July 2026.

Here’s why this is worth knowing, not depressing: The card was never the thing that decided your cost. Your plan design was.The difference is that now you know to look — and looking is four questions, not a research project. Most women never make this call because nobody tells them what to ask.

The four-question plan check

Your plan may use a different name. Watch for: Coupon Adjustment · Benefit Plan Protection Program · Out-of-Pocket Protection Program · Copay Leveling Program · Variable Copay Program · Patient Assurance Program.

Call the member services number on your insurance card and ask, word for word:

  1. “Does my plan use a copay accumulator or copay maximizer program for brand-name prescriptions?”
  2. “If I use a manufacturer copay card for Duavee, will the manufacturer’s payment be credited toward my deductible and my out-of-pocket maximum?”
  3. “Is my plan fully insured or self-funded?”
  4. “Is Duavee — conjugated estrogens/bazedoxifene — on my formulary, at what tier, and does it require prior authorization?”

Write down the date, the representative’s name, and the reference number. That creates a record you can use for follow-up, escalation, or an appeal.

Make that call before you fill.

If the answers come back clean, you can enroll and be done in one sitting.

Who qualifies for the Duavee savings card?

Eligibility requires being 18 or older with private commercial prescription insurance that covers Duavee. Pfizer’s terms state the card is available to commercially insured patients only, and that state and federal beneficiaries and cash-paying patients are not eligible.

You may qualify if all of these are true:

  • You’re 18 or older
  • You have private commercial prescription insurance — through an employer, a spouse’s employer, or the Marketplace
  • Your plan covers Duavee on its formulary
  • You have a valid Duavee prescription
  • Your pharmacy participates
  • At least 30 days have passed since your last card redemption
  • Your plan doesn’t prohibit manufacturer copay cards

You don’t qualify if any of these are true:

  • Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage with drug coverage
  • Medicaid
  • TRICARE
  • VA health care
  • A state prescription assistance program
  • Puerto Rico’s Government Health Insurance Plan
  • You’re paying cash with no insurance billed

Pfizer MHT Savings Card terms, read July 28, 2026.

Marketplace coverage counts — but coverage isn’t the same as eligibility

A plan bought on the Marketplace is private commercial prescription insurance, so it can qualify. But there are four separate gates, and you need all four:

  1. Do you have commercial insurance? (The card’s eligibility test.)
  2. Does that plan include prescription coverage?
  3. Is Duavee on your formulary?
  4. Has any required prior authorization been approved?

Clear all four and the card reduces what’s left. Miss one and there’s nothing for it to work on.

If you’re a federal employee

Good news, and it’s specific. The Office of Personnel Management says FEHB members are permitted to take part in pharmaceutical company copay reimbursement programs — FEHB is exempt from the federal restriction that blocks Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. That doesn’t automatically make you eligible for this particular card. Pfizer’s own terms and your specific FEHB plan’s prescription rules still control. Confirm both before you rely on it — Pfizer’s card support line is 1-888-WMN-HLTH.

One thing to know if the card doesn’t work out: Pfizer’s patient assistance program specifically excludes commercially insured patients, including federal employer plan patients. So for FEHB members, the card is the route to pursue, not the assistance program.


Is the $1,440 yearly limit just for Duavee?

The $1,440 maximum applies per patient, not per drug, and runs from the enrollment date through December 31 of that calendar year. Because the card may not be redeemed more than once per 30 days per patient and Duavee’s maximum benefit is $110 per fill, Duavee fills alone cannot exhaust the annual maximum.

For Duavee, the yearly cap will not be your problem. The card can be redeemed no more than once every 30 days. At most, that’s 13 redemptions in a calendar year. 13 × $110 = $1,430 — still under the $1,440 maximum. Even in the best case, Duavee alone can’t run the cap dry.

Two things worth knowing about how the cap works:

A note that belongs here, about your health rather than your wallet:Duavee’s prescribing information says women taking Duavee should not take progestins, additional estrogens, or another estrogen agonist/antagonist. Don’t use savings-card arithmetic to plan additional hormone prescriptions. That’s a conversation with your prescriber, not a coupon calculation.

How do I get and use the Duavee savings card?

Enrollment runs through Pfizer’s Menopause Hormone Therapies savings page, which asks a short set of eligibility questions. The published card terms list no membership fee and no income requirement. The card is presented at the pharmacy after commercial insurance, as a secondary claim.

Six steps.

  1. Confirm your insurance type. Commercial only. On a government program? Stop here and skip to the Medicare section — there’s a better route waiting for you.
  2. Go to pfizermenopause.com/savings-card. Don’t search and click the first result. Several point to addresses that redirect or display expired terms.
  3. Answer Pfizer’s eligibility questions. The published terms list no membership fee and no income test.
  4. Save the card three ways — screenshot on your phone, printed copy in your wallet, and bookmark the terms page. Pharmacy systems go down. Phones die.
  5. Give the pharmacist your insurance card first, then the savings card. The order matters. The card processes as a secondary claim, after insurance. Say it plainly:

    “Please run my commercial insurance first, then apply the Pfizer MHT copay card for Duavee as secondary.”

  6. Ask for all three numbers before you pay:
    • What you owe with insurance alone
    • What you owe with insurance plus the card
    • What the cash coupon price is today

Should you get a 90-day supply?

This is worth thirty seconds of thought, and we haven’t seen it addressed anywhere. Pfizer caps the benefit at $110 per prescription filled. A 90-day fill is one prescription filled. So a 90-day supply would draw up to $110 total — covering three months. Three separate 30-day fills could draw up to $110 each, or $330 across the same three months.

On the card’s published terms, monthly fills are worth roughly three times more than a quarterly fill.Ask the pharmacy to price both ways before you choose, because your plan’s copay structure for a 90-day supply may change the math.

If your pharmacy won’t take the card, or you use mail order

Pfizer’s terms include a reimbursement route. Pay in full, then send:

Mail to: Pfizer, Attn: Claims Processing Department, IQVIA, Inc., 77 Corporate Drive, Bridgewater, NJ 08807. Check the current terms page before you mail — program addresses change.

You know your number, you know your plan, and you know which page is current.

That’s the hard part done.

Why did my Duavee savings card get rejected?

A Duavee savings card claim can be rejected because of government insurance, the plan not covering Duavee, an unresolved prior authorization, an expired card, a redemption inside 30 days, another discount already applied, a non-participating pharmacy, or an exhausted annual benefit. The pharmacy’s rejection message identifies which applies.

Don’t assume the program ended. Ask for the exact rejection message or code — it usually narrows the next step immediately.

What to say at the counter:

“Can you tell me the exact rejection message or code? Is the issue my eligibility, the drug’s coverage, refill timing, or the card processing?”

Pfizer card support: 1-888-WMN-HLTH. Have your card ID and the rejection message ready.


How do I check the balance left on my Duavee savings card?

Pfizer’s current public card terms do not describe an online balance checker for the Menopause Hormone Therapies Savings Card. The card support line is the route for confirming how much of the $1,440 calendar-year maximum remains.

There’s no member portal for this. If you’ve been filling Duavee for months and want to know where you stand before you plan around another $110, call 1-888-WMN-HLTH and ask how much calendar-year benefit remains.

Two moments when it’s worth calling:

Ask for the amount remaining and the date it resets. Write both down.


Can I use the Duavee savings card with Medicare or Medicaid?

No. Pfizer’s terms exclude beneficiaries of Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, Veterans Affairs health care, state pharmaceutical assistance programs, and Puerto Rico’s government health plan. This is consistent with federal anti-kickback restrictions on manufacturer coupons for drugs reimbursed by federal health programs.

Straight no. And one thing that comes up constantly: paying cash doesn’t create an exception. If you’re enrolled in Medicare, you’re excluded from the manufacturer card even if you try to run it as a cash-paying patient.

But you may be looking at the better program.

The two Pfizer programs are mirror images

Savings cardPatient assistance (RxPathways)
Who it's forCommercially insured onlyUninsured or government insured
Commercially insured?RequiredExcluded
Medicare or Medicaid?ExcludedMay qualify if every requirement is met
What you getCost reduced toward $25Free medication, if approved
Income test?None publishedYes

If the card just rejected you because of Medicare, that rejection may have pointed you somewhere better. If Pfizer approves the application, free medication beats a $25 copay.

What Pfizer requires for patient assistance

You’re uninsured or government insured and unable to afford the cost. You have a valid prescription for an FDA-approved use. You live in the U.S. or an eligible territory. Your prescriber completes and signs their section. And your annual household pretax income cannot exceed 300% of the applicable federal poverty guideline, adjusted for household size.

2026 maximum income at 300% of the guideline (48 contiguous states and D.C.):

Household sizeMaximum income
1$47,880
2$64,920
3$81,960
4$99,000

Computed from the 2026 HHS poverty guidelines. Add $17,040 for each additional household member. Alaska and Hawaii use higher figures. Confirm your household’s threshold with Pfizer.

You’ll need proof of income — pay stubs, a W-2, or a tax return. Missing income documentation can stall or end the review, so send it complete the first time. Phone: 1-844-989-PATH (7284).

Two Medicare facts worth having alongside this:

If Medicare or Medicaid is why the card rejected you, the assistance program is the door to try — and it’s free to apply.

How can I save on Duavee if I have no insurance?

Cash-paying patients are not eligible for the Duavee savings card. Separate discount routes exist, and observed July 2026 figures for a 30-tablet supply ranged from about $30.30 on a manufacturer-supported platform to roughly $267 as a stated average retail price.

You’re excluded from the card. The cash side is better than most pages will tell you.

Rules for the cash routes

Full cash price breakdown with sources →

Does my insurance have to cover Duavee for the card to work?

Yes. Pfizer describes the savings card for patients with commercial prescription drug coverage for Duavee. The card reduces an existing cost-sharing amount and does not create coverage where a plan excludes the drug or requires an unresolved prior authorization.

Short answer: yes, and this trips up more people than the Medicare rule does. If your plan excludes Duavee or a required prior authorization is unresolved, resolve the coverage decision first. Don’t assume the card can be applied against a full cash price.

What to ask your insurer

One arrangement worth naming

Some employer plans use alternative funding arrangements that remove selected drugs from ordinary coverage, so the patient appears uninsured on paper and gets routed to a manufacturer assistance program. For Duavee that can create a squeeze: the savings card needs a covered benefit, and Pfizer’s assistance program excludes commercially insured patients. If you think this has happened to you, get the plan’s written coverage decision and confirm your Pfizer eligibility directly before concluding that neither route applies.

What women say about paying for Duavee

Published patient reviews of Duavee are mixed. On Drugs.com, Duavee’s overall rating is 6.4 out of 10 from 35 reviews. On WebMD, it is 3.7 out of 5 from 72 reviews. Reviews frequently reference cost and supply as reasons for stopping.

We’re not going to pretend Duavee has a fan club. The published ratings are middling, and we’d rather you see them before you spend an afternoon on paperwork. Ratings as published, captured July 2026. Review counts and scores change over time. These numbers reflect individual experiences and say nothing about whether a medication is safe or effective for you — that’s a conversation with your prescriber.

On cost specifically, the reviews say something this page exists to prevent. One WebMD reviewer who’d taken Duavee for about three years wrote:

“I quit taking it last week. My insurance quit paying for it.”

A Drugs.com reviewer of eight years described a different kind of interruption:

“Very frustrated with two different backorders this summer.”

Neither of those is a reason to avoid Duavee. Both are reasons to know your coverage and your card status before you’re standing at a counter with a decision to make.


Do I need a prescription, and can I get one online?

Duavee is prescription-only and is dispensed through a pharmacy rather than by a telehealth service. A telehealth visit does not change Pfizer’s savings-card terms and does not guarantee a lower pharmacy price. Whether any clinician will prescribe or continue Duavee is a clinical decision.

Before this section, one thing that belongs alongside any conversation about getting this medication:

Duavee is FDA approved for moderate-to-severe menopausal hot flashes and for preventing postmenopausal osteoporosis in women with a uterus. It carries a boxed warning and has multiple contraindications. Its label states that women taking Duavee should not add progestins, additional estrogens, or another estrogen agonist/antagonist. Read the current prescribing information and ask your prescriber whether it fits your health history. (Duavee prescribing information, Pfizer.)

A telehealth visit won’t make Duavee cheaper. It’s a Pfizer brand filled at a pharmacy. Anyone implying otherwise is misleading you.

Depending on the clinician, your state, the platform, and the clinical assessment, an online clinician may be able to discuss a new or continuing prescription, support prior authorization paperwork, or complete a prescriber section on an assistance application. None of that is guaranteed. We have not verified that any specific provider prescribes or continues Duavee. Ask at intake, before you pay for a visit.

Medicaid and Medi-Cal beneficiaries cannot be treated, even self-pay. Confirm state availability, network status, and Duavee-specific support before booking.
SesameA cash-pay appointment to discuss a new prescription or refillThe clinician decides whether Duavee is appropriate; a prescription or refill is not guaranteed. Self-pay only — it can’t solve a coverage problem, which is what most readers of this page have.

Who we’re deliberately not sending you to, and why

We’re not pointing you toward compounded hormone providers on this page. Duavee is an FDA-approved product with a specific approved formulation and approved uses. Compounded hormone preparations are not FDA-approved and are not equivalent to it. On a page about an FDA-approved brand, recommending a compounded alternative would be the wrong answer no matter what it paid us.

We’re also skipping flat-fee services whose standard offering pairs estradiol with a progestogen. Duavee’s label says women taking it should not add progestins, additional estrogens, or another estrogen agonist/antagonist. A progestogen-containing product isn’t a cheaper version of Duavee — it’s a different medicine.

If you need a prescriber who can bill your commercial insurance and send the prescription to your own pharmacy, that’s a specific, solvable problem.

How did The HRT Index verify these terms?

This page was researched by The HRT Index editorial team using The HRT Index Verification Standard: read every published price at its primary source, separate FDA-approved from compounded options, verify availability and program terms, and re-check on a fixed schedule. It is editorial research and was not reviewed by a clinician.

Our sources, in the order we trust them:

  1. Pfizer’s own program materials — the consumer savings card page and the full terms and conditions, read directly
  2. Duavee’s FDA prescribing information, for anything medical
  3. Pfizer RxPathways, for patient assistance rules
  4. KFF, NCSL, OPM, and Medicare, for insurance mechanics, state law, and Part D figures
  5. Current pricing platforms, for dated snapshots only
  6. Competitor pages — used only to identify stale claims, never as a source of fact

We evaluate providers on five things, always in this order: clinical legitimacy, care quality, medication fit, price transparency, and access. We don’t publish numeric provider scores.

Duavee savings card FAQ

How much is Duavee with the savings card?

As little as $25 per fill, but only when what you owe after insurance is $135 or less. Pfizer's maximum contribution is $110 per fill, so an amount of $200 leaves roughly $90 due and $250 leaves roughly $140.

Why is $135 the break point?

Pfizer's advertised patient amount is as little as $25 and its maximum Duavee benefit is $110 per fill. Adding $25 and $110 gives $135. Above that amount, even the maximum contribution leaves more than $25 due.

Who is eligible for the Duavee savings card?

Adults 18 and older with private commercial prescription insurance that covers Duavee. Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE, VA, state drug assistance programs, and cash-paying patients are not eligible.

Can I use the Duavee savings card with Medicare?

No. Medicare beneficiaries are excluded, and paying cash doesn't create an exception. Pfizer's patient assistance program is the route to check instead -- it may provide free medication to approved applicants.

Can I use it with Marketplace insurance?

Possibly. A Marketplace plan can be private commercial prescription insurance. Duavee must be covered by that plan, and the rest of Pfizer's terms still apply.

Where do I sign up?

At pfizermenopause.com/savings-card. When we checked on July 28, 2026, the older duavee.com/savings-card address redirected elsewhere.

Does the Duavee savings card expire?

The current offer expires December 31, 2026. Pfizer can amend or end it before then.

Is the $1,440 maximum just for Duavee?

It's a per-patient maximum, not per drug. Because the card can be redeemed no more than once per 30 days, Duavee fills alone can't exhaust it -- 13 redemptions at $110 comes to $1,430.

How do I check my remaining balance?

Pfizer's public terms don't describe an online balance checker. Call 1-888-WMN-HLTH and ask how much calendar-year benefit remains.

Why did my card get rejected?

Possible reasons include government insurance, the plan not covering Duavee, an unresolved prior authorization, an expired card, a redemption inside 30 days, another discount already applied, a non-participating pharmacy, or an exhausted annual benefit. Ask for the exact rejection message.

Does the savings card count toward my deductible?

It depends on your plan. In a plan running a copay accumulator or maximizer, manufacturer assistance isn't credited toward your deductible or out-of-pocket maximum -- and Pfizer's terms say the card can't be combined with those arrangements at all.

Can I use the savings card and a GoodRx coupon together?

No. The card can't be combined with another savings offer. Ask the pharmacy to quote each separately and take the lower valid one.

How often can I use the card?

No more than once every 30 days per patient.

Does it work with mail order?

It may not process directly. Pfizer's terms provide a reimbursement route: pay in full, then mail a copy of the original pharmacy receipt, a copy of your card, and your address to the program address.

Is there a generic Duavee?

No FDA-approved generic version of Duavee was identified when we checked in July 2026. A patent expiration date is not the same as an FDA approval or a market launch.

Is Duavee discontinued?

Duavee remains FDA approved and appears in Pfizer's current menopause portfolio. That doesn't guarantee stock at a particular pharmacy.

What if my pharmacy doesn't have it?

Local stock can vary. Ask the pharmacy to check current inventory or order status. A local out-of-stock result is not the same as a national shortage.

Does the card cover my doctor's visit?

No. It applies to an eligible Duavee prescription fill only -- not consultations, labs, or anything else.


Which Duavee savings route should I use?

The whole page in six lines:

Whichever line is yours, ask the pharmacy for all three numbers before you pay. It’s the most direct way to compare the routes actually available to you.
