Why is Jakafi (Jakafi) priced differently in the US and Canada?

Does Jakafi have a generic equivalent?
Generic and brand-name pricing for Jakafi is broken out in the tables above where both exist in our data. Generic versions are typically the lower-cost option, but availability depends on the specific formulation and dosage.
How much will Jakafi cost with my health insurance?
Your out-of-pocket cost for Jakafi with insurance depends on your specific plan's formulary, copay structure, and deductible. Since copays can be high for specialty medications, it is advisable to ask your pharmacist to compare your insurance copay price with any available pharmacy discount programs to determine the most cost-effective option.
Is Jakafi covered by Medicare, and what will I pay?
Jakafi is typically covered under Medicare Part D prescription drug plans and many Medicare Advantage plans. However, as a specialty-tier drug, the patient copay or coinsurance can be substantial. For those without coverage or facing high out-of-pocket costs, exploring pharmacy assistance programs or manufacturer coupons may help lower the expense.

Jakafi is currently only available as a brand-name drug. Its active ingredient is ruxolitinib, and no generic equivalent has been approved in the United States at this time.
