Frequently asked questions
How much does Rifampin (Rifadin) cost without insurance?
At the US pharmacies in our data, the lowest listed discount-card price for Rifampin is around $39.82. Prices vary by pharmacy, dosage, and pack size, so use the table above to compare specific options near you.
Can I buy Rifampin (Rifadin) at a Cost Plus Drugs price?
Yes — Cost Plus Drugs lists Rifampin at roughly $0.268 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 Rifampin (Rifadin) cost in Canada?
Canadian pharmacy listings in our data show Rifampin priced from about $0.520 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 Rifampin (Rifadin) 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.
How much will I pay for Rifadin with my health insurance?
Your copay or coinsurance for Rifadin depends entirely on the specifics of your health insurance plan, including your deductible and formulary tier. For the most accurate pricing, ask your pharmacist to process your prescription with your insurance information. If your out-of-pocket cost is high, you might also inquire about using a pharmacy savings program, which could provide an alternative price that is sometimes lower than your insurance copay.
Is Rifadin covered by Medicare, and what is the cost?
Rifadin is generally not covered by standard Medicare Part D plans. Without coverage, patients would be responsible for the full cash price. To manage this expense, it's advisable to shop around at different pharmacies and ask about available discount programs or manufacturer coupons that can substantially lower the final cost.
Is a generic version of Rifadin available?
Yes. Rifadin is the brand-name version of the drug manufactured by Sanofi. The generic equivalent is called rifampin, which contains the same active ingredient and is typically much more affordable.
