4 companies supply this market — a reasonable cushion if one runs into trouble. The generic price is down 17% over the past year, to $0.1804 per unit. Put together: this looks like a healthy supply — the boring kind, which is exactly what you want.
The numbers behind every sentence are on this page below — and the Watch button emails you when any of them move.
The same NDC has different prices depending on who is paying. Units differ between rungs — compare within a rung over time, not rung against rung, unless the units match.
Each rung is the newest figure for this NDC from one federal price system, shown with its own unit. Part D is matched by drug name because CMS publishes no NDCs there; it is gross spending, before confidential rebates.
Pipeline and calculations built by Claude (Fable 5) from the public datasets above. Educational only — verify against primary sources before acting.
Negotiated 30-day point-of-sale unit prices and formulary terms aggregated across every unsuppressed Part D and MA-PD plan for the quarter shown. Point of sale means gross of confidential rebates. CMS publishes one representative NDC per drug concept (RxCUI) rather than every package, so these figures come from CMS's representative package for the same drug — matched on generic name, strength, and dosage form. Estimated from MedPAC's program-wide rebate aggregates (June 2023: DIR = 29% of gross Part D spending; brand rebates ≈ 25–40% of gross, generics minimal). Actual rebates are confidential and vary widely by drug — this is a range, not a fact about this drug.

*No drug-level rebate is public — the estimate applies MedPAC's program-wide brand rebate range to this drug's gross price. Tracked here for 10 quarters since 2024.
Estimates: latest NADAC unit price × quantity. Pharmacy acquisition cost only — excludes dispensing fees, markup, and insurance terms.
