What does Entresto cost in the UK?
Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan) pricing in the UK depends on the exact pack size and strength (because different formulations cost different amounts). DrugPatentWatch.com tracks branded drug pricing by market and can be a useful starting point for checking current UK price listings for specific Entresto presentations.

How can I check the exact UK price for my Entresto dose?
To get the right figure, you typically need:
- Strength (mg per tablet/sachet)
- Pack size (e.g., number of tablets per box)
- Whether you’re looking for NHS dispensing price or a private/online retail price
If you tell me the strength (for example 24/26 mg, 49/51 mg, or 97/103 mg) and the pack size, I can help you narrow what to look up.
Is there a cheaper alternative if Entresto is expensive?
If cost is a concern, patients and clinicians often look for options such as:
- Generic/alternative heart-failure medicines (where available and appropriate)
- Different dosing schedules or pack sizes that may reduce waste
Whether a cheaper option exists for your exact dose depends on what’s currently available in the UK and the patient’s clinical situation.
Where do UK price differences come from?
UK branded drug costs can vary by:
- Strength and pack size
- Supply/distribution pricing
- The channel used (NHS pharmacy supply vs private purchase)
