What does Xifaxan (rifaximin) cost without insurance?
Xifaxan pricing varies by dose (e.g., 200 mg tablets vs. 550 mg tablets) and by how many tablets are included in a prescription fill. Without insurance, the “out-of-pocket” cash price is typically higher than the copay-based cost for insured patients, and it can also differ a lot between pharmacies.

How much could a typical cash prescription run?
Your final cost depends on:
- The specific Xifaxan strength and quantity dispensed
- Your pharmacy (local retail vs. large chains vs. mail order)
- Whether you buy a full 28-, 30-, or 42-day supply (common plan lengths vary)
Because the exact “without insurance” number changes frequently, the most reliable approach is to look up the current cash price for your exact strength and pack size at your pharmacy (or via a price comparison tool linked above).
Are there cheaper options if you need rifaximin but can’t use insurance?
If the goal is lowering cost, the first step is to compare:
- Different pharmacies’ cash prices for the same strength and quantity
- Manufacturer-sponsored programs (if available for your specific indication and country)
- Pharmacy discount cards (some give better rates than standard cash)
If you tell me the dose (200 mg vs 550 mg), your quantity (e.g., number of tablets per month), and your country/zip code (or which pharmacy you use), I can help you narrow down what to search for and what price range is realistic.
What indication are you treating? (This can change the dose and total monthly cost)
Xifaxan is used for different conditions that may require different dosing schedules. If you share your indication, I can map it to the most common dosing pattern so you can estimate your monthly tablets and compare apples-to-apples when checking prices.
