Esomeprazole: 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
ESOMEPRAZOLE DR 10 MG PACKET	$5.56	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE DR 2.5 MG PACKET	$5.92	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE DR 20 MG PACKET	$5.15	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE DR 40 MG PACKET	$4.53	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE DR 5 MG PACKET	$5.76	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE MAG DR 20 MG CAP	$0.16	per tablet/unit	Generic
ESOMEPRAZOLE MAG DR 40 MG CAP	$0.12	per tablet/unit	Generic

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