What does Repatha cost in Canada?
Repatha (evolocumab) is a prescription PCSK9 inhibitor. Exact out-of-pocket cost in Canada depends on the dose (e.g., 140 mg every 2 weeks vs. 420 mg monthly), whether you have private drug coverage, and whether you’re eligible for any manufacturer or provincial assistance. The specific Canadian list price and net price after rebates are not provided in the information available here, so I can’t give a reliable dollar figure without a source tied to Canada.
What usually drives the price you pay at the pharmacy?
In Canada, the final amount patients pay is most often affected by:
- The negotiated price your pharmacy uses under the provincial/plan pricing framework.
- Your plan type (private insurance, employer plan, or provincial program).
- Your deductible/co-pay rules (for insured patients).
- Whether you can access financial assistance that lowers the patient copay (when available).
Where can I check current Canadian pricing?

If you’re trying to lower your Repatha cost
To reduce what you pay, the practical routes in Canada are usually:
- Check your provincial coverage status and criteria (if applicable).
- Ask your prescriber’s office or specialty pharmacy about manufacturer patient-assistance programs or copay-support options, if offered for Canada.
- Ask the dispensing pharmacy to show the breakdown between the billed price and your covered portion.
If you tell me your province and whether you’re paying cash, using private insurance, or using a provincial plan, I can narrow down the most likely cost range drivers and what to ask the pharmacy to get the exact number.
