Is there a generic for invokana?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for invokana

Yes. The generic name for Invokana is canagliflozin.

In the United States, as of 2024 there isn’t an FDA-approved generic version widely available, so most people still use Invokana by brand name unless a generic becomes available through patent resolution or in other markets. Generics may exist in other countries depending on local patent status.

If you share your country, I can give more specific info on availability and pricing. You can also check with your pharmacist or doctor for the latest options and any potential patient assistance programs.
