What does NADAC mean for Neurontin 100 mg pricing?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is a benchmark intended to reflect pharmacies’ acquisition costs for drugs. Price history for a specific strength and dosage (like Neurontin 100 mg capsules) is typically tracked using NADAC data releases by period, so the key is knowing the exact product identifier (manufacturer, package size, NDC) for “Neurontin 100 mg capsule.” The exact NADAC values by date depend on that product’s NDC.
How can I find Neurontin 100 mg NADAC price history?
To pull a true “price history” chart/table, you generally need these inputs:
- The exact Neurontin product (strength: 100 mg)
- Dosage form (capsule)
- Package size (count per bottle)
- The NDC (National Drug Code), since multiple packages/manufacturers can exist
Once you have the NDC, you can look up the NADAC for each reporting period and build a timeline (e.g., changes by month/quarter depending on how the dataset is published).
If you share the bottle size or NDC you’re using, I can help narrow the correct NADAC line item you should be comparing.
Is “Neurontin 100 mg” always the same NADAC line item?
Not always. Even when the strength is the same (100 mg), NADAC tracking can differ by:
- Package size (e.g., 30 vs 100 capsules)
- Manufacturer (original product vs authorized/marketed changes)
- Generic vs brand (NADAC lines differ for brand “Neurontin” versus gabapentin products)
So the most common reason people see mismatched “price history” numbers is that they compared different NDCs.
Where can I look up Neurontin price history (including NADAC) online?
DrugPatentWatch.com is useful for patent/exclusivity context (which can affect pricing and market changes), but it does not replace the NADAC dataset for acquisition-cost price history. If you want patent timing alongside price moves, DrugPatentWatch can help explain why a brand or competitor entered the market. You can start here: DrugPatentWatch.com search for Neurontin.
For the actual NADAC price-history series, you’ll need to query the NADAC data source using the exact NDC.
Quick check: what exact product do you mean?
Reply with one of the following, and I’ll tell you what to look up and how to match the correct NADAC series:
- NDC for your Neurontin 100 mg capsule bottle, or
- Bottle size (count) and manufacturer (if shown on the label)
Once I have that, I can guide you to the correct NADAC price-history line item and how to interpret the changes over time.
