What’s the price for dapagliflozin + metformin 10 mg/500 mg?
Price depends on the country, pharmacy (or insurer), pack size, and whether you’re buying a branded product or a generic. The exact strength you named (dapagliflozin 10 mg / metformin 500 mg) is commonly sold as a fixed-dose combination, but prices vary widely by location and manufacturer.

Which product matches “dapagliflozin metformin 10 mg 500 mg”?
Different regions may market the same combination under different brand names and with different tablet strengths (for example, 5 mg/500 mg vs 10 mg/500 mg). To price it accurately, you’ll need at least one of:
- Your country (and whether you want cash price or insurance price)
- The brand name on the box/blister (or a photo of the label text)
- Number of tablets per pack
If you share your country and the brand name, I can narrow down what that specific 10 mg/500 mg combination typically costs.
How can I estimate the cost if I don’t know the brand?
If you’re shopping for a cash price, ask for:
- “10/500 mg dapagliflozin/metformin combination” (not the individual drugs)
- Pack size pricing (30 vs 60 vs 90 tablets)
- Whether a generic version of the combination exists locally
Does insurance change the price a lot?
Yes. Many markets require prior authorization for SGLT2/inhibitor + metformin combinations, or they place them into formulary tiers that can sharply change your out-of-pocket cost.
If you tell me your country and whether you’re using insurance, I can suggest what pricing factors to check (e.g., formulary tier, copay vs coinsurance).
Are there common alternatives that may cost less?
Yes. Depending on local pricing, you may find:
- A different combination strength (e.g., 5 mg/500 mg) that can be adjusted with tablets
- Separate generic dapagliflozin and metformin products instead of the fixed-dose combo
A cheaper alternative depends on what your pharmacist can substitute and whether your prescriber allows changes.
Quick questions so I can give an exact price
1) What country are you in?
2) What’s the brand name (or a photo of the label text)?
3) How many tablets are in the pack (30/60/90)?
4) Is this cash price or insurance-covered?
