Frequently asked questions
Is Leflunomide (Arava) expensive if I don't have insurance?
Our most recent US pharmacy data shows a low of roughly $21.03 for Leflunomide with a standard discount card. That figure moves with dosage and quantity — check the comparison table for the exact combination you need.
Is Leflunomide (Arava) available through Cost Plus Drugs?
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.
What do Canadian pharmacies charge for Leflunomide (Arava)?
We found Canadian pricing for Leflunomide starting near $0.400 per tablet in USD terms. That's before any shipping charge, which the table above breaks out separately.
Why is Leflunomide (Arava) priced differently in the US and Canada?
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.
