How much does amoxicillin 500 mg cost at Drug Mart (and how to find the cheapest price)?
I can’t give a specific price for “amoxicillin 500 mg” at Drug Mart from the information provided here, because drug prices vary by:
- the exact product (brand vs generic),
- capsule/tablet vs suspension,
- quantity (how many tablets/capsules),
- location (store/ZIP code),
- and whether a discount program (membership, coupons, cash price) applies.
The fastest way to price-shop is to check the Drug Mart listing for the exact NDC (drug code) or the exact package size on their site/app or by calling the pharmacy with the prescription label details.
What details should you tell the pharmacy to get an exact quote?
To avoid being quoted the wrong drug, ask for the price for:
- Generic or brand (amoxicillin)
- Strength: 500 mg
- Dosage form: capsules or tablets (or liquid)
- Count: how many in the bottle/package (e.g., 21, 30, 90)
- Directions (sometimes matters for what exact product is stocked)
- Whether you’re paying cash or using insurance
Where to compare prices if Drug Mart is expensive
If Drug Mart’s price is high, compare against other local pharmacies and major online discount pharmacies using the same package size and dosage form. Price differences often come from the count and whether it’s the same manufacturer/generic listing.
Is there a cheaper alternative to amoxicillin 500 mg?
Sometimes a different strength (like 250 mg tablets/capsules) with the same total daily dose can be cheaper, but you should only switch after confirming with the prescriber or pharmacist that it’s equivalent for your regimen.
Can coupons or discount cards reduce amoxicillin?
Cash-price discount programs and coupons can lower the cost, but savings depend on the exact product and package size. Ask the Drug Mart pharmacist what discount options apply for your specific NDC/product.
