About these prices

Prices shown are NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) — what pharmacies actually pay to purchase drugs, published weekly by CMS/Medicaid. This is not the retail price you see at the pharmacy counter, which includes dispensing fees and markup. Use NADAC as a benchmark: if your out-of-pocket cost is far above the NADAC price, ask your pharmacist about generics or cash-pay discount programs like GoodRx.

Why are there so many NDC codes? NDC stands for National Drug Code— an 11-digit identifier assigned by the FDA to every unique drug product sold in the US. Each combination of manufacturer, drug name, strength, dosage form, and package size gets its own NDC. So a single drug like atorvastatin 10 mg will have separate NDC codes for each generic manufacturer (Teva, Mylan, Apotex, etc.) and each bottle size (30-count, 90-count, 500-count). That's why you see many rows for what appears to be the same medication — they are the same drug, just sourced from different manufacturers or packaged differently. Prices often vary between them.
