How much does guaifenesin + phenylephrine cost?
Prices for “guaifenesin phenylephrine” products vary a lot based on the exact brand and strength (for example, whether it’s an extended-release tablet, liquid, or a specific dose combination) and by retailer. To give a precise price, you need the product name and dosage form.
Common places to check for the current cost include:
- Major retailers’ websites (Walmart, Walgreens, CVS, Target)
- Online pharmacies (including those that sell store-brand versions)
- Manufacturer or pharmacy “price check” pages
If you paste the exact product (brand + strength) or a photo of the box label (active ingredients and mg amounts), I can help you narrow down what to look for and compare likely equivalent options.
What exact product name/dose should I search for?
“Guaifenesin phenylephrine” can refer to different combo products, typically including:
- Guaifenesin (mucus expectorant)
- Phenylephrine (nasal decongestant)
To avoid price mismatches, search using the full label text, such as:
- “guaifenesin phenylephrine extended-release”
- “guaifenesin phenylephrine liquid”
- the brand name on the front of the package
- the listed mg amounts for each ingredient
Are there cheaper alternatives with the same ingredients?
Often, the lowest price comes from:
- Store brands with the same active ingredients and dose
- Generic equivalents (when available)
- Different dosage forms (some extended-release versions cost more than immediate-release)
If you tell me your preferred form (tablet vs liquid) and day/night vs daytime-only, I can suggest what kinds of substitutes usually compare best.
What affects the price the most (so you can predict the range)?
The biggest drivers are:
- Brand vs store brand vs generic
- Tablet type (extended-release vs immediate-release)
- Bottle size (count or mL)
