How much does nitrofurantoin cost at Mercury Drug in the Philippines?
I can’t give a precise Mercury Drug price for “nitrofurantoin” from the information provided here. Prices in the Philippines can vary by brand, strength (for example 50 mg vs 100 mg), formulation (capsules/tablets/suspension), and pharmacy branch or promo pricing.
If you share the exact product details (brand name on the box, strength like 50 mg/100 mg, and whether it’s capsules or tablets), I can help you narrow down what to look for and how to compare prices across sources.
Which nitrofurantoin variants usually change the price?
Nitrofurantoin pricing commonly differs based on:
- Strength: 50 mg vs 100 mg (or other available strengths)
- Form: capsule vs tablet vs other formulations
- Brand vs generic versions
- Pack size (number of capsules/tablets per box)
If you tell me the box details, I can help you identify whether you’re comparing the same dose and pack size.
Where else can you check pricing in the Philippines?
If your goal is to find the lowest price, it helps to compare:
- Mercury Drug listings (online and/or in-store)
- Other local pharmacy chains (for the same brand strength and pack size)
- Generic alternatives, if available (same active ingredient, strength, and dosage form)
If you’re asking about “Nitrofurantoin price + Mercury Drug” because of a shortage
Sometimes nitrofurantoin availability changes by strength or formulation, which can affect price. When that happens, checking alternate brands/generics and different package sizes for the same dose can reduce cost.
Can you share the exact nitrofurantoin product so I can pinpoint the right price?
Reply with:
- Brand name (as shown on the Mercury Drug item)
- Strength (mg)
- Form (capsule/tablet)
- Pack size (e.g., 20s, 30s, 100’s, etc.)
- Any label wording (for example “macrocrystals” if shown)
Then I can help you determine what price to expect and how to compare it correctly.
