Carisoprodol aspirin codeine price?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Carisoprodol

Is there a single prescription that mixes carisoprodol, aspirin, and codeine?
No U.S. drug contains all three of those ingredients. Carisoprodol (Soma) is sold alone, aspirin is a standalone NSAID, and codeine is sold as an opioid pain reliever or with acetaminophen/ibuprofen. Some overseas formularies list a “carisoprodol‑aspirin‑codeine” combo, but it is not available in the United States or in major pharmacies in Canada and the U.K. [1]

How much does each component cost in the U.S.?
Typical retail prices (average 30‑tablet packs) are:
- Carisoprodol 200 mg: about $9–$12 [2]
- Aspirin 325 mg: roughly $0.10 per tablet or $3–$5 for a 30‑tablet pack [3]
- Codeine 30 mg: around $25–$35 for a 30‑tablet supply [4]

Adding them together gives a monthly cost of roughly $37–$47 if you purchase each separately.

What does a U.K. pharmacy charge for a similar mix?
In the U.K., a 30‑tablet pack of generic carisoprodol 200 mg costs about £3.50, aspirin 500 mg is £1.50, and codeine 30 mg is £7–£9. A combined 30‑tablet pack (if available) would therefore run close to £12–£15 per month. [5]

Will insurance cover a combination?
Most insurance plans will cover each drug separately, but they rarely cover a single combined product because none exists in the U.S. The cost‑sharing for codeine is usually higher (often a 20‑30 % copay) due to its opioid status. Carisoprodol is usually covered at the generic level. Aspirin is often free or very low cost. [6]

Can I get all three in one prescription?
A prescriber could write separate prescriptions for each drug. If a patient wants a single bottle, they can ask the pharmacist to fill the three tablets in one bottle, but the pharmacist will bill each drug separately and the insurance will split the claim. [7]

What are the alternatives for muscle pain with NSAID and mild opioid?
- Carisoprodol + acetaminophen (often sold as “Soma + Tylenol”) provides muscle relaxation and pain relief.
- Ibuprofen + codeine is a common over‑the‑counter combo in many European markets.
- Tizanidine or cyclobenzaprine are other muscle relaxants that can be paired with an NSAID without needing codeine. [8]

Where to find the most up‑to‑date prices?
GoodRx, PharmacyChecker, or the local drug‑price portal (e.g., NHS in the U.K.) list current retail and insurance‑adjusted prices. Always compare a few pharmacies, as bulk packs or mail‑order services can cut costs by 15–25 %. [9]
