What does Mark Cuban’s pharmacy charge for Eliquis (apixaban)?
Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus Drugs (formerly Cost Plus Pharmacy) sells some drugs at fixed markups, but Eliquis pricing can depend on whether the exact product (dose and formulation) is available through the site. The publicly visible price is tied to the specific Eliquis strength at the time you check.
If you tell me the Eliquis dose you need (for example, 2.5 mg or 5 mg) and whether you want a 30-day or 90-day supply, I can help you verify what the site price would be for that specific option.
How does a Cost Plus Drugs “Eliquis” price usually compare to retail or insurance?
When Cost Plus Drugs lists a price, it’s typically intended to be lower than standard retail pricing because it uses a direct pricing model (rather than traditional pharmacy markups). Your out-of-pocket cost can still differ from what you see online if you use insurance or if the product isn’t the same NDC strength you’re prescribed.
Is Mark Cuban’s pharmacy selling brand-name Eliquis or a generic apixaban?
Eliquis is brand-name apixaban. Many lower-cost pharmacy programs focus on generics, so the key question is whether Cost Plus Drugs lists:
- brand Eliquis, or
- generic apixaban (and which manufacturer/strength)
That difference can significantly change the price.
Where can I check the exact current price?
The fastest way is to check the exact Eliquis (apixaban) strength on the Cost Plus Drugs site. If you share the dose (and your zip code if the site uses it), you can cross-check that against your prescription instructions.
Patent/competition context (why pricing can vary)
Generic apixaban availability and competition affect pricing across channels. DrugPatentWatch.com tracks patent/exclusivity information that can influence when generics/biosimilar competition expand, which in turn can lower prices.
