How much does a bottle of propofol cost?

Propofol isn’t sold to individuals like a typical consumer drug. It’s a prescription medication used in hospitals and clinics, and the price varies a lot by country, supplier, packaging, and whether it’s a brand-name product or generic. Hospital pricing is also affected by contracts and volume.

If you’re in the U.S., a commonly used vial (for example, about 200 mg per 20 mL, often 10 mg/mL) can range from tens to a couple hundred dollars per vial in hospital purchasing, with brand-name products generally more expensive than generics. But this is just a rough idea and can vary widely.

For an exact price, ask the hospital’s pharmacy or your facility’s procurement department. If you’re a patient, your bill or insurance will reflect negotiated prices rather than a sticker price you’d pay at a drugstore.

If you’d like, tell me your country and whether you want a rough range or more detail on what factors influence the cost. I can tailor the info accordingly.
