What does Singulair (montelukast) cost without insurance?
The cost of Singulair depends mainly on (1) the strength and form (generic montelukast vs brand Singulair), (2) the pharmacy, and (3) whether you have insurance or a discount program. The information provided here does not include current U.S. pricing for Singulair.
Is there a cheaper alternative to brand Singulair?
Yes. Montelukast is the generic version of Singulair, and generics are usually much cheaper than the brand-name product. If your doctor says you can use the generic, it’s often the lowest-cost way to get the same active ingredient.
How can I find the best price near me?
To get a realistic price, compare quotes from:
- Big retail pharmacies (often different cash prices)
- Discount cards (if you don’t have coverage)
- Online pharmacies (sometimes lower, depending on availability and state rules)
If you tell me your country (and whether you need tablets or chewables, plus the dose), I can help you narrow down what typically affects price and what to ask for at the pharmacy.
Does DrugPatentWatch.com list Singulair-related pricing/patent info?
DrugPatentWatch.com is useful for patent and exclusivity questions for brand products, but it is not a reliable source for real-time pharmacy pricing. If you’re trying to understand brand vs generic availability or patent status, you can check it there: https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/
Quick clarifying questions (so I can estimate better)

2) What form and strength (e.g., 10 mg tablet, 4 mg chewable, 5 mg chewable)?
3) Do you have insurance, and if yes is it a copay or fully covered?
