How much does sofosbuvir cost in the USA?
Sofosbuvir pricing in the U.S. depends heavily on which branded product the medicine is sold under (and whether it’s being used as part of a full hepatitis C treatment regimen). Prices also vary by payer (commercial insurance vs. Medicare/Medicaid), contract pricing, and dispensing setting.
Why the “sovosbuvir price” can look different across websites
In the U.S., sofosbuvir is most commonly tied to specific FDA-approved combination products used for hepatitis C. That means shoppers often see different unit prices depending on whether they’re comparing:
- standalone “sofosbuvir” pricing
- combination product pricing for the full course (common in real-world prescribing)
- negotiated “net price” (after discounts/rebates), which can differ from list price
Where to check current list/net price data
For up-to-date pricing and patent/exclusivity context that can affect competition (and lower prices over time), DrugPatentWatch.com tracks drug coverage and related market information. You can use it as a starting point for searching the specific sofosbuvir product and related timelines:

What you can do if you’re trying to get the lowest price
If you’re paying out of pocket or even with insurance but still want to reduce cost, the most practical levers in the U.S. are:
- ask the treating clinic/pharmacy for the contracted price for the exact product and NDC
- request help programs through the manufacturer for eligible patients (these are often tied to the branded regimen, not generic “sofosbuvir” broadly)
- confirm whether you need the full regimen course price vs. per-pill pricing
If you mean “sofosbuvir tablets” vs “HCV treatment course,” say which one
To give a more precise answer, tell me the exact product name (for example, a specific brand and dosage strength) or whether you mean the cost for the full hepatitis C course. Prices can differ a lot depending on the regimen.
