Is there a generic for Humira?
Humira is a biologic, so instead of generics it has biosimilars: lower-cost versions the FDA has found work the same way. Several are available. Ask your doctor whether one fits and which your plan covers.
How can I get Humira for free or at a lower cost?
myAbbVie Assist may provide it free if you meet income limits; your doctor signs part of the application. With private insurance, a copay card from the official Humira website can lower your copay.
