Frequently asked questions
What's the cash price for Leflunomide (Arava) in the US?
At the US pharmacies in our data, the lowest listed discount-card price for Leflunomide is around $21.03. Prices vary by pharmacy, dosage, and pack size, so use the table above to compare specific options near you.
Can I buy Leflunomide (Arava) at a Cost Plus Drugs price?
Yes — Cost Plus Drugs lists Leflunomide at roughly $0.064 per unit, a published price with no membership card or coupon involved. See the three-price comparison above for how that stacks up against discount-card pharmacies.
How much does Leflunomide (Arava) cost in Canada?
Canadian pharmacy listings in our data show Leflunomide priced from about $0.400 per tablet (converted to USD), before shipping. Pack size and pharmacy both affect the final total — see the Canada pricing table for specifics.
Why does Leflunomide (Arava) cost more in one country than the other?
Drug pricing is set separately in each country through different negotiation, regulatory, and distribution systems, so the same medication can legitimately carry different price tags on either side of the border. In this case, our data shows the US price is actually the lower of the two once a program like Cost Plus Drugs is factored in — the assumption that Canada is always cheaper doesn't hold for every drug.
What is the typical cost for Arava for patients without insurance coverage?
For individuals paying out-of-pocket, the retail price for a 30-tablet supply of brand-name Arava 20mg can be substantial. However, the generic equivalent, leflunomide, is available at a considerably lower price. Utilizing a prescription savings program or discount card can further reduce this cost to a more affordable level at most major pharmacies.
How does the cost of Arava vary for patients with health insurance?
The out-of-pocket cost for Arava with insurance, often referred to as a copay, is entirely dependent on your specific health plan's formulary and the prescribed dosage. It is important to note that generic leflunomide is frequently covered at a lower tier, resulting in a lower copay. Your pharmacist can help you compare your insurance copay with prices available through prescription discount programs to ensure you obtain the most economical option.
Is Arava covered under Medicare plans, and what are the expected costs?
Most Medicare Part D and Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans typically do not cover brand-name Arava. However, they generally include generic leflunomide on their formularies. If you are prescribed Arava, you might explore options such as manufacturer coupons or pharmacy discount cards to help manage the cost of the generic version.
