What is Hyzaar “100/12.5” and what price should you expect?
Hyzaar 100/12.5 is a branded prescription tablet that combines two ingredients: losartan 100 mg and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5 mg. The “5” in “100 12 5” usually refers to the tablet strength schedule or a packaging/detail shorthand, but it is not enough by itself to determine the exact product (for example, number of tablets per bottle).
Because the price depends heavily on:
- the exact pack size (how many tablets),
- whether you mean brand Hyzaar or a generic,
- your pharmacy/location and whether insurance applies,
I can’t give a single reliable number from the information provided.
How to get the most accurate Hyzaar 100/12.5 price near you
If you want, share any two of these and I can help narrow to the right listing:
1) brand vs generic (Hyzaar vs losartan/HCTZ)
2) pack size (e.g., 30, 90, 100 tablets, etc.)
3) your country/zip code (or at least country)

Is Hyzaar typically cheaper as a generic?
In many markets, losartan/HCTZ is available as an oral generic combination, which usually costs less than the branded Hyzaar. If your goal is the lowest out-of-pocket cost, ask your pharmacy for “losartan 100 mg / hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg” and compare it with brand Hyzaar.
Are there cheaper alternatives to lower the bill?
If cost is the main issue, common alternatives include:
- Switching from brand Hyzaar to the equivalent generic losartan/HCTZ combination
- Using a different dose combination if your prescriber allows (for example, different HCTZ strength), since pricing can vary by strength and pack size
If you tell me the exact pack size and whether you’re paying cash or with insurance, I can help you figure out the most cost-effective comparison to make.
