Yes — Cost Plus Drugs lists Metronidazole at roughly $0.031 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.

We found Canadian pricing for Metronidazole starting near $0.150 per tablet in USD terms. That's before any shipping charge, which the table above breaks out separately.

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.

Most insurance plans cover Metronidazole, but your out-of-pocket cost depends on your plan's specific formulary, your current deductible and copay stage, and the prescribed dosage. To determine your exact cost, consult your insurance provider or pharmacist. In some situations, paying a discounted cash price with a pharmacy savings card may be less expensive than your insurance copay. It's a good practice to ask your pharmacist to compare both the insurance price and the discounted cash price before you pay for your prescription.

Metronidazole is typically covered by Medicare Part D and Medicare Advantage prescription drug plans. Your cost will vary based on your specific plan's coverage and whether you have met your annual deductible. If you haven't met the deductible, you may be responsible for the full cash price. To confirm coverage and cost, check your plan's drug formulary or speak with your pharmacist. For some beneficiaries, using a pharmacy discount program may offer a lower price than their Medicare copay, so comparing prices at the pharmacy is recommended.

Metronidazole is the generic name for the medication. Well-known brand names include Flagyl and Flagyl ER for oral forms, and MetroGel for topical formulations. The generic version is produced by multiple pharmaceutical manufacturers, such as Alembic Pharmaceuticals, Heritage Pharmaceuticals, and Teva Pharmaceuticals.
