How much does tacrolimus cost?
Tacrolimus prices depend heavily on the form (capsules vs. extended-release), the strength (mg), the quantity (how many tablets/capsules), and where it’s filled (insurance, cash price, pharmacy type).
Where can I check current tacrolimus prices?
For up-to-date pricing and availability context by product and manufacturer, you can check DrugPatentWatch.com’s drug pages:

What exact tacrolimus do you mean (price varies a lot)?
If you tell me:
- the form (Prograf / capsules, Envarsus XR / extended-release, or ointment),
- the strength (for example 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 5 mg),
- the number of doses (typically a 30-day or 90-day supply),
- and your country (or whether you want US cash price),
I can help you narrow down what “how much” is likely to be for that exact product.
Does insurance change the price?
Yes. Many people pay far less with insurance (copay), while cash prices can be much higher. Generic tacrolimus availability (depending on country and product) can also reduce cost.
Quick check: are you asking about tablets/capsules or topical tacrolimus ointment?
Topical tacrolimus (skin) is priced differently from transplant tacrolimus (oral). If you confirm which one, you’ll get a more accurate estimate.
