How much does Farxiga cost in the US?
Farxiga (dapagliflozin) pricing varies based on insurance coverage, pharmacy pricing, dose (e.g., 5 mg vs 10 mg), and whether you’re paying cash or using a benefit plan. Without your exact dose and zip code (or whether you have insurance), the most accurate number can’t be pinned down from the information provided here.

What affects Farxiga’s out-of-pocket price?
Your out-of-pocket cost usually depends on:
- Insurance type and formulary tier (copay vs coinsurance)
- Deductible status for the year
- Whether your plan requires prior authorization for SGLT2 inhibitors
- Whether you qualify for any manufacturer or pharmacy assistance options (if applicable)
- Your pharmacy’s cash price vs negotiated rates
If you share your dose (5 mg or 10 mg), whether you’re using insurance, and your pharmacy/zip code, I can narrow down what to look for.
Are there cheaper alternatives if Farxiga is expensive?
If Farxiga’s cost is high, people often compare:
- Other SGLT2 inhibitors (same class)
- Formulary-preferred generics (if available for your specific situation)
- Manufacturer assistance programs (if eligible)
- Pharmacy discount programs or switching to a different pharmacy chain
Because pricing changes frequently, the best approach is to compare the total monthly price at multiple pharmacies using your insurance or a cash price tool.
Is Farxiga available as a generic?
Whether a generic is available and its price depends on the current patent/exclusivity and market status. For up-to-date checks tied to IP and market status, DrugPatentWatch.com is one place to look: https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/ (search “Farxiga”).
How to get the most accurate Farxiga price fast
If you want a quick, practical path to a real number, check:
- Your insurance portal (shows your exact copay/coinsurance for your dose and quantity)
- The pharmacy you plan to use (ask for “cash price” and “price with your insurance”)
- Manufacturer/eligibility pages (if you’re interested in assistance)
If you tell me your country (US vs elsewhere), dose strength, and whether you’re paying cash or with insurance, I can help you figure out what information to request and where pricing will likely come from.
