Minus stops at the label's minimum interval — this never shows a schedule faster than the manufacturer's. Staying longer on a dose is yours to choose.

This is arithmetic, not a plan. Fills are spaced 30 days apart — the label's own supply length — and priced on the date each one falls, so dated price changes are already included. Your prescriber decides whether you step at all, and many people stay at a lower dose.
The label's own words (once daily)

Table 2 of the prescribing information: 1.5 mg once daily for days 1 through 30, 4 mg for days 31 through 60, 9 mg for days 61 through 90, and the 25 mg maintenance dosage from day 91 onward. If a dose is not tolerated during escalation, the label says escalation may be delayed. Take one tablet on an empty stomach in the morning with up to 4 ounces of water, swallowed whole, and wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking or taking other oral medicines.

    • Government referral site — does not sell drugs or process payments; issues coupons or routes to manufacturer DTC channels. Every figure it shows is a starting-at price — the site's own column is headed 'Lowest' — so it is a floor for the cheapest dose or intro offer, never a flat price.
