Frequently asked questions
How much does Phenytoin (Dilantin) cost without insurance?
Our most recent US pharmacy data shows a low of roughly $25.63 for Phenytoin with a standard discount card. That figure moves with dosage and quantity — check the comparison table for the exact combination you need.
Is Phenytoin (Dilantin) available through Cost Plus Drugs?
Yes — Cost Plus Drugs lists Phenytoin at roughly $0.061 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 Phenytoin (Dilantin)?
We found Canadian pricing for Phenytoin starting near $0.090 per tablet in USD terms. That's before any shipping charge, which the table above breaks out separately.
Why is Phenytoin (Dilantin) 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.
How does insurance affect the price of Dilantin-125?
The cost of Dilantin-125 with insurance depends entirely on your specific plan's formulary and coverage details, including your copay or coinsurance. You should contact your insurance provider to confirm your coverage. If your insurance does not cover this medication, or if you have a high copay, you may explore other cost-saving options, such as pharmacy discount cards. These can be used regardless of insurance status, including for patients on Medicare or Medicaid, to compare and potentially lower your out-of-pocket expense at the pharmacy.
