How much does Calquence cost in the UK?
Calquence (acalabrutinib) pricing in the UK depends on the pack size, strength, and whether it is dispensed through the NHS, a private prescription, or a pharmacy cash price. Exact UK list prices can change over time, so the most reliable way to check current costs is to look up the product in UK medicine pricing databases or ask the supplying pharmacy for the latest price for the specific pack you need.

If you want, tell me the strength (e.g., 100 mg tablets) and the pack size, and whether you’re looking for NHS vs private pricing, and I can help you narrow down what to ask your pharmacy for and how to find the current UK price for that exact item.
Does the NHS cover Calquence, and how does that affect what you pay?
If Calquence is prescribed through the NHS for an approved indication, the patient typically pays a standard prescription charge (unless exempt). The drug cost itself is usually not paid by the patient directly in the same way as private cash pricing. This can make the “what it costs” question look very different depending on whether the prescription is NHS or private.
What affects Calquence price most in practice?
UK out-of-pocket cost for a specific patient usually comes down to:
- whether the prescription is NHS vs private
- the exact pack size dispensed
- pharmacy pricing and dispensing fees (for private purchases)
- prescription exemptions (for NHS prescription charges)
Quick next question (so I can give a precise answer)
Are you looking for the NHS prescription cost (what you pay as a patient) or the private/pharmacy cash price, and what Calquence pack strength/size do you mean (e.g., 100 mg tablets)?
