How much does glimepiride cost for 1 mg?
Pricing for glimepiride 1 mg varies mainly by whether you use a brand or a generic, which pharmacy you go to, and your insurance coverage. The most consistent way to get a current “out-of-pocket” price is to check a live pharmacy price lookup (or compare coupon prices) rather than relying on a single historical figure.

Is glimepiride 1 mg usually expensive because it’s “brand”?
Glimepiride is typically available as a generic, so 1 mg usually costs far less than a brand version. If you’re seeing high pricing, it’s often because:
- you were dispensed a brand (or a different manufacturer),
- you didn’t have a generic allowed on your prescription,
- or you don’t have coverage/coupons applied.
What can change the price at the pharmacy?
Common drivers of “glimepiride 1 mg” cost include:
- tablet count (30 vs 90 tablets),
- your state and local pharmacy pricing,
- cash price vs insurance copay,
- whether your plan covers the specific NDC/manufacturer you received,
- pharmacy membership programs and coupons.
