Frequently asked questions

What's the cash price for Minoxidil (Minoxidil) in the US?

Our most recent US pharmacy data shows a low of roughly $6.89 for Minoxidil with a standard discount card. That figure moves with dosage and quantity — check the comparison table for the exact combination you need.

Is Minoxidil (Minoxidil) available through Cost Plus Drugs?

Yes — Cost Plus Drugs lists Minoxidil at roughly $0.024 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 Minoxidil (Minoxidil)?

We found Canadian pricing for Minoxidil starting near $0.110 per tablet in USD terms. That's before any shipping charge, which the table above breaks out separately.

Why is Minoxidil (Minoxidil) 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 much does Minoxidil cost with health insurance?

The cost of Minoxidil with insurance depends entirely on your specific health plan, including your deductible and copay structure. It is best to consult your pharmacist or insurance provider to determine your exact out-of-pocket expense. Note that some savings options, like discount cards, may offer a price lower than your insurance copay, so it can be worthwhile to ask your pharmacist to compare prices for you.

Is Minoxidil covered by Medicare, and what is the cost?

Most Medicare Part D prescription drug plans cover generic Minoxidil. The patient copay amount will vary based on your plan's formulary and coverage phase (e.g., deductible, initial coverage). To find your exact cost, check your plan's drug list or ask your pharmacist. It is also advisable to compare the plan's copay against other available pharmacy savings options, as the lowest price may come from a different source.

What was the original brand name for Minoxidil?

Minoxidil is a generic medication produced by several manufacturers, including Par Pharmaceutical, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Sun Pharmaceutical, and AvKare. The original brand-name product was called Loniten, but this branded version is no longer marketed in the United States. Only generic Minoxidil tablets are currently available by prescription.
