The short answer
Albuterol has no single cash price. Your total depends on the exact product, pharmacy, quantity, insurance, and offer. The CMS numbers below are pharmacy acquisition benchmarks—not patient prices.

Before you compare Albuterol
Inhalers and nebulizer solutions are not interchangeable price units. For an inhaler, ask for the price of the complete prescribed package.
Albuterol acquisition-cost reference
One representative NDC per description. Values retain five decimal places so low per-unit costs do not round to zero. EA = each; ML = milliliter; GM = gram. A unit is not necessarily a complete package.

Original CMS dataset · Download this reference as JSON · How we select records
CMS lists the underlying NADAC data as public domain. This designation applies to the CMS data, not the accompanying RxCompare articles or site design.
Acquisition benchmark history
Observed CMS acquisition costs for pharmacies, not prices patients pay. We compare only the same NDC, description, classification, and unit. No retail savings are inferred. Archive, downloads, and history methodology.

Get a price for your prescription
- Match the label. Write down the full product name, strength, dosage form, and quantity. Ask the pharmacy about the package if you are unsure.
- Ask for separate totals. Get the cash price, insurance price, and any discount offer for the same fill.
- Include required fees. Add delivery or membership costs that are not already included in the quote.
- Compare and confirm. Use your actual quotes in the calculator and ask your plan about the effect on your benefit.
A question to bring to the counter
“Could you check the cash total and my insurance cost for my prescribed Albuterol, with the same strength, form, and quantity? Are there any extra fees, and is this the final price for this fill?”
Common questions
How much does Albuterol cost without insurance?
RxCompare does not have a live retail quote for Albuterol. Request the cash total for your prescribed strength, form, and quantity from a pharmacy. The table on this page is an acquisition-cost reference, not an amount you can expect to pay.
Can I compare different Albuterol strengths?
Use the exact prescribed product for a fair price comparison. Do not change strength, form, or release type based on a benchmark; ask your clinician or pharmacist about medication changes.
Why is my pharmacy quote different from this table?
The table reports a dated national acquisition benchmark for one representative NDC per description. Your pharmacy may stock another package or manufacturer, and retail pricing includes more than acquisition cost.
