Drug Cost Guides — How Much Does Your Medication Cost?

Prescription drug prices vary widely — sometimes by hundreds of dollars for the same medication at different pharmacies. Our drug cost guides explain how much common medications cost without insurance, which pharmacies charge the least, and how to use free discount cards to cut your bill significantly.

Why Prescription Prices Vary So Much

Unlike most consumer goods, prescription drug prices in the U.S. are not regulated. Each pharmacy sets its own cash price independently, and insurance copays vary by plan. The result: the same 30-day supply of metformin can cost $4 at Walmart and $35 at CVS — a nine-fold difference for an identical product. Understanding these differences before you go to the pharmacy can save you hundreds of dollars per year.

Free prescription discount cards — like the one RxDiff provides — negotiate lower cash prices at 70,000+ pharmacies. In many cases, the discount price is lower than your insurance copay. Use RxDiff to compare both options for your specific medication before every fill.
