Budesonide: what pharmacies actually pay

Prices below are the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) — the federal government's weekly survey of what pharmacies actually pay their wholesalers, as of 07/22/2026. Your pharmacy's cash price includes their markup and dispensing cost, so it will be higher — but if it's many times this number, that's a signal to shop around.

Form & strength	Pharmacy cost	Unit	Type
BUDESONIDE 0.25 MG/2 ML SUSP	$0.74	per mL	Generic
BUDESONIDE 0.5 MG/2 ML SUSP	$0.69	per mL	Generic
BUDESONIDE 1 MG/2 ML INH SUSP	$3.72	per mL	Generic
BUDESONIDE 2 MG RECTAL FOAM	$9.39	per gram	Generic
BUDESONIDE 32 MCG NASAL SPRAY	$1.39	per mL	OTC
BUDESONIDE DR 3 MG CAPSULE	$0.50	per tablet/unit	Generic
BUDESONIDE EC 3 MG CAPSULE	$0.50	per tablet/unit	Generic
BUDESONIDE ER 9 MG TABLET	$15.37	per tablet/unit	Generic

Rough math: a typical 30-day supply of one tablet/day equals 30× the per-unit cost.
