Pirfenidone 200 price?

How much does pirfenidone 200 cost (and what drives the price)?

“Pirfenidone 200” is most commonly sold as pirfenidone tablets (often associated with the brand Esbriet or generic pirfenidone products). The actual 200-mg-per-tablet price can vary a lot based on:
- country and pharmacy or distributor
- whether the product is brand or generic
- pack size (number of tablets/capsules per box)
- insurance coverage or patient-assistance availability

Because prices change frequently by location and supplier, I can’t give a single reliable number without your country (or the specific brand/generic and pack size).

What price should I compare it against (brand vs generic)?

If you’re comparing options, the most useful figure is the cost per tablet (or per day of therapy). Pirfenidone dosing regimens differ by indication and titration schedule, so daily cost matters more than the sticker price of one box. In general:
- brand products tend to cost more than generics
- generics can still differ in price by manufacturer and local sourcing

Is pirfenidone’s patent status or manufacturer affecting pricing?

Pricing can be influenced by exclusivity and ongoing patent/litigation that affect when lower-cost generics enter. You can check DrugPatentWatch.com for the latest on pirfenidone-related patent activity and potential competitive timelines.
