How much does hydroxyurea cost per month?

What’s the monthly cost of hydroxyurea (typical out-of-pocket range)?

Hydroxyurea pricing varies a lot based on the strength, tablet/capsule type, whether it’s brand vs. generic, and the pharmacy’s cash price versus insurance. Without your dose (mg) and formulation (capsule/tablet), there’s no single “monthly cost.”

If you want, tell me:
- your hydroxyurea dose (mg)
- tablets or capsules (and brand if you know it)
- your country/ZIP (or whether you want US cash-price estimates)

and I can help narrow it to a realistic monthly number.

If you’re paying cash: what changes the monthly total most

Monthly cost usually changes the most because:
- Total mg per day: Your daily dose drives the number of pills/capsules you need.
- Strengths you can use: Some doses require combining multiple strengths, which can increase cost.
- Generic availability and pharmacy pricing: Cash prices differ by pharmacy and region.

If you share your dose and formulation, I can estimate the monthly pill count and help you calculate a monthly cost from a price you see at your pharmacy (or from a specific listing you find).
