What does Mercury Drug charge for rosuvastatin 10 mg in the Philippines?
I can’t see live Mercury Drug shelf prices from here. Price can also vary by manufacturer (brand vs. generic), pack size (number of tablets), and whether there’s an ongoing promo.
If you tell me the exact product name you’re seeing on Mercury Drug (for example, “Rosuvastatin 10 mg [brand/generic]” and the tablet count), I can help you compare it to typical options and estimate what a reasonable price range is based on the available publicly reported information.
How to quickly check the current Mercury Drug price
Mercury Drug prices are usually fastest to confirm using one of these:
- The Mercury Drug website/product listing (if available for your exact SKU)
- The Mercury Drug mobile app (if they show current unit prices)
- In-store shelf label for “Rosuvastatin 10 mg” and the exact brand/generic
If you paste a screenshot or the product details (brand name + tablet count), I’ll interpret it and help you verify whether you’re looking at the same strength and dosing form.
Are there cheaper rosuvastatin 10 mg alternatives if Mercury is expensive?
In the Philippines, rosuvastatin is widely available as both brand-name and generic products. Price differences typically come from:
- Brand vs. generic
- Tablet count per pack (e.g., 10, 14, 20, 30 tablets)
- Whether it’s being sold under a specific promotion
If you share the tablet count and brand on the Mercury Drug item, I can suggest what to search for on other common local pharmacies and how to compare “per tablet” cost fairly.
What price comparison do shoppers usually make (per tablet)?
To compare fairly, convert any quote to a per-tablet cost:
- Price per tablet = (pack price) / (number of tablets in the pack)
If you send the Mercury Drug price you’re seeing (even just the number) and the pack size, I’ll calculate the per-tablet cost and check whether it’s in line with typical expectations for rosuvastatin 10 mg generics/brands.

DrugPatentWatch.com is useful for patent/exclusivity research, but it does not provide current retail pharmacy prices. If you want, tell me the brand you mean and I can check the relevant patent/exclusivity context there, then you can use that to understand why some brands may cost more than generics.
