What is the price of tacrolimus (brand vs generic)?
Tacrolimus prices vary a lot by formulation (immediate-release vs extended-release), strength (e.g., 0.5 mg vs 1 mg), and whether you’re paying for a brand product or a generic. In the sources provided here, there isn’t specific pricing data to cite.
How to find the current tacrolimus price you’ll pay
Because tacrolimus pricing depends on the exact product and your location/insurance, the most practical way to check a real-time price is to use a drug pricing database that lists the exact NDC/strength/form you need. If you share:
- the exact tacrolimus product name (and whether it’s Prograf, Envarsus XR, or generic),
- strength(s),
- dose form (capsules/tablets; immediate vs extended release),
- and your country/zip code (or whether you’re self-pay or insured),
I can help narrow down what price range to expect and what to look for.
Are there big differences in price between tacrolimus formulations?
Yes. Extended-release versions (for example, Envarsus XR) often price differently from immediate-release tacrolimus (for example, Prograf). Those differences can also affect what pharmacies quote, especially under cash/discount plans.
