How much does rosuvastatin cost (and what price should you expect)?
Rosuvastatin price depends on the strength (for example, 5 mg vs. 20 mg), the tablet count, whether you’re paying cash or using insurance, and whether you’re buying a brand or generic.

What affects the price the most: generic vs. brand, strength, and quantity?
In general, generic rosuvastatin is much cheaper than brand options. Within generic versions, the biggest pricing swings usually come from:
- The dose (mg per tablet)
- How many tablets come in the bottle
- Pharmacy pricing and local discounts (or whether there’s a cash-pay program)
How much is a typical prescription month (30-day supply) vs. longer?
Most rosuvastatin prescriptions are written as 30- or 90-day supplies. Your monthly cost usually drops when you buy larger quantities, but the exact amount varies by:
- The pharmacy
- Your location
- Your copay or cash price
If you tell me the dose (e.g., 10 mg or 20 mg), tablet count (30 or 90 days), and your country/state (and whether you want generic or brand), I can narrow down what you should expect and where to look for the best match.
