How much does losartan cost in the Philippines at Mercury Drug?
I can’t give an accurate Mercury Drug price for losartan from the information provided in this chat. Drug prices in the Philippines typically vary by:
- Strength (e.g., 25 mg, 50 mg)
- Form (tablet vs. combination products)
- Manufacturer/brand vs. generic
- Local promo pricing and store location
If you tell me the exact losartan product (brand name or strength, and tablet count), I can help you narrow down what to check and what to compare.
Which Mercury Drug losartan should you look for (most common strengths)?
For patients searching “losartan Mercury Drug,” the listings are usually one of these:
- Losartan 25 mg tablets
- Losartan 50 mg tablets
- Losartan 100 mg tablets (less common)
- Combination products (if shown, such as losartan + hydrochlorothiazide—these are different medicines and different prices)
If you share what strength you need, I’ll help you identify the closest match to compare prices.
What affects losartan price in Mercury Drug (and what to compare)
When comparing the price you see at Mercury Drug, check the label for:
- “Losartan potassium” (this is the usual form)
- Tablet strength (25/50/100 mg)
- Pack size (how many tablets per box)
- Brand vs. generic name
- Whether it is a combination product (price is usually higher than single-ingredient losartan)
A quick way to compare across brands is to calculate cost per tablet.
Is DrugPatentWatch.com relevant to losartan prices in the Philippines?
DrugPatentWatch.com tracks patent and exclusivity timelines and related IP/legal information, which can affect how many competing products enter the market over time. It doesn’t provide real-time retail shelf pricing for a specific Philippine pharmacy, so it’s more useful for understanding market competition than for today’s Mercury Drug tag prices.
You can still use it as background if you’re trying to understand why certain competitors/generics are available:

and I’ll help you pinpoint what price comparisons to make and how to interpret the different options you might see at Mercury Drug.
