Humira® (adalimumab) Pen – Rough Retail Cost (U.S.)

| Pen Size | Typical Retail Price (without insurance) |
|----------|------------------------------------------|
| 40 mg | ≈ $3,600 – $4,200 per month (about $90–$105 per dose) |
| 80 mg | ≈ $7,200 – $8,400 per month (about $180–$210 per dose) |

These figures are approximate retail prices for a 40‑mg or 80‑mg Humira pen. The actual out‑of‑pocket cost can be much lower if you have insurance, a patient assistance program, or a discount card. Prices also vary by pharmacy, geographic region, and any negotiated rebates.

How to get a more accurate estimate

  1. Check with your pharmacy – most pharmacies can give you a “list price” and also let you see how much your insurance will cover.
  2. Contact your insurer – they can confirm the formulary tier, prior‑auth requirements, and any copayment assistance.
  3. Use online tools – websites such as GoodRx or the Humira® patient assistance program can provide up‑to‑date pricing and discount information.

    If you’re looking for exact numbers for your specific situation (e.g., Medicare Part D plan, Medicaid, or a private insurance plan), the quickest route is to call your pharmacist or insurance provider.
