How much does Arbli cost?
Without insurance, one 165 mL bottle of Arbli 10 mg/mL costs an average of $780.77. With a GoodRx discount, you may be able to pay a cash price as low as $609.26 at certain pharmacies. There is no generic alternative available.
What factors affect the cost of Arbli?
Without insurance, what you’ll pay for Arbli depends on several factors, including your:
Pharmacy: Pharmacies and their wholesalers can set their own prices, so where you fill your prescription can make an impact.
Location: Prescription medication costs also can vary by geographic location.
Fill quantity: Medications can be more affordable when purchased beyond a monthly supply.
Does insurance cover Arbli?
Some health insurance plans cover Arbli. If you have insurance, review your plan’s summary of benefits and coverage and formulary (list of covered medications) to determine whether Arbli is covered. If not, contact your plan and ask about your coverage options. You can also discuss alternatives with your prescriber or a pharmacist.
How different insurance plans cover Arbli
More than half of Medicaid enrollees who have plans that cover Arbli are required to get prior authorization. The same is true for about 1 in 3 people with Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace plans that cover Arbli, and about 1 in 5 people with coverage through commercial (private) plans not purchased through the ACA marketplace. To get prior authorization, your prescriber will have to provide documentation to your insurer that demonstrates Arbli is medically necessary for you.
Step therapy (trying at least one, typically lower cost, medication first) is required for about 5% of people with commercial plans not purchased through the ACA marketplace.
The chart below shows how frequently different types of insurance cover Arbli, and whether prior authorization or step therapy is usually required.
Insurance type | Enrollees covered for one 165 mL bottle of Arbli 10 mg/mL | Enrollees required to get prior authorization | Enrollees required to do step therapy |
|---|---|---|---|
31.4% | 29% | 0.5% | |
Commercial plans (excluding ACA plans) | 31.6% | 20.5% | 4.7% |
Medicare (Medicare Advantage and Part D plans) | 4.6% | 0.2% | 1% |
Medicaid, including state-run and managed care plans | 57.4% | 56% | 2.2% |

Tips if your medication isn’t covered by insurance
If your insurance doesn’t cover Arbli, try these options:
Use a GoodRx coupon to potentially save on your prescription.
Ask your prescriber about less costly treatments that may meet your needs. This could mean switching to another brand-name medication that costs less or a medication that has a generic option available. In this case, you would have to switch to a tablet because brand-name Arbli is the only liquid ARB of its kind available.
Request a formulary exception from your insurance company. If your request is denied, you have the right to file an appeal with your plan.
When it’s time for open enrollment, compare health insurance plans to find one that covers your medications more effectively.
Signs of a hypertensive crisis: Read about symptoms that could indicate you need to seek emergency care for high blood pressure.
Losartan alternatives like other ARBs and ACE inhibitors: These medications can be used instead of losartan to help you treat high blood pressure. Some also may help with other conditions.
Outdated hypertension medications: These treatments may no longer be the best choice for managing your high blood pressure.
Ways to save on Arbli
Whether or not you have insurance, there are ways to reduce the cost of Arbli. Here are four options.
1. Use a GoodRx coupon
You may be able to use a free GoodRx coupon to lower the price of your Arbli prescription. For example, without insurance, you could pay as little as $609.26 for one 165 mL bottle of Arbli 10 mg/mL with a GoodRx coupon.
Visit the GoodRx website or download the GoodRx app on your mobile device to get savings. Here’s how:
On the app or website, type “Arbli” in the search field.
Choose the desired quantity. Input your ZIP code or address, or select “Use my current location,” so you see results for local pharmacies.
Choose how you want to receive your coupon. You may want it emailed or texted to you, or you may want to print it out.
Take your Arbli coupon with you to the pharmacy. Present the coupon to the pharmacy’s staff early in the filling process to help avoid delays at the pickup counter.
2. Check if you’re eligible for a patient assistance program
You may be able to get help through a patient assistance program. For instance, the Patient Access Network (PAN) Foundation offers grants to cover treatment costs for people who have a demonstrated need for financial support, are covered by government-funded insurance, and meet income requirements. The PAN Foundation has a heart failure fund that can help cover copays and other costs for Arbli. At the time of publication, this fund was not accepting new enrollees, but you can join the wait list.
3. Ask about a 90-day supply
You may be able to reduce your overall costs by getting a 90-day fill of Arbli (typically 3 bottles) rather than a 30-day supply (typically 1 bottle). Your pharmacy team can help you figure out the best deal when they’re processing your prescription for the ARB medication.
4. Tap into your HSA, FSA, or HRA
Consider using a flexible spending account (FSA), a health savings account (HSA), or a health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) to pay for your medication. You can enjoy multiple tax benefits, and reduce your out-of-pocket costs, by using an FSA, HSA, or HRA to pay for qualified healthcare expenses. But be sure to review your account’s contribution limits, rollover limits, and eligible expenses.
The bottom line
For people who have been diagnosed with high blood pressure (hypertension) and have trouble swallowing pills, Arbli (losartan) may be an option to consider. This relatively new angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) comes in a liquid form and is usually taken once daily. But Arbli is only available as a brand-name prescription medication, as it doesn’t currently have a generic version on the market.

Methodology
We obtained national prescription coverage data for each medication from Managed Markets Insight & Technology (MMIT). The data reflects health insurance coverage as of December 6, 2025.
We calculated the percentage of enrollees in plans that cover each medication by dividing the number of enrollees covered for the medication within a specific insurance channel (e.g., ACA, Medicare, Medicaid) by the total number of enrollees in all plans within that channel.
We determined the percentage of enrollees in plans with a prior authorization requirement by calculating the proportion of enrollees in plans that required prior authorization for the medication within each channel.
Finally, we measured the percentage of enrollees in plans with a step therapy requirement by calculating the proportion of enrollees in plans that imposed step therapy requirements for the medication in each channel.
These estimates, derived from national MMIT coverage data, provide insight into health insurance coverage for each medication. They take into account restrictions such as prior authorization, step therapy, and quantity limits. The percentages are expressed relative to the total number of enrollees covered by various insurance channels, including ACA plans, commercial (excluding ACA) plans, Medicare, and Medicaid (both state-run and managed care plans).
