The spread
44.3× estimated
These two figures may not measure the same thing
At 44.3×, the Medicare figure is 20 or more times what pharmacies pay. A gap that large means the two figures may not describe the same unit or product, or the price may have changed between their dates; check what each one covers before relying on the multiple.
Part D averages every strength and form sold under “Diazepam*” / “Diazepam” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

$0.64 + $0.10 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $5.74

What to ask at the counter
None of these figures is your price: what you pay depends on your pharmacy, your insurance, coupons and discounts.
- What is your cash price for 30 tablets? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
- If you have Medicare Part D: what is my plan’s copay or coinsurance for it? The Part D average on this page is not what you pay.
- These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
Questions
- Why is the comparison with Medicare for DIAZEPAM 2 MG TABLET labelled estimated?
- Beyond what the card shows, the records give these reasons: The Part D figure covers 2024-01-01 to 2024-12-31; the NADAC price is from the file of 2026-10-14. Part D spending basis, as the Part D record states it: Part D 2024 average spend per dosage unit for Diazepam* / Diazepam: all makers, strengths, forms and routes combined, claim-weighted; gross cost incl. dispensing fees and patient pay, before rebates. Unit taken as NADAC's EA. Joined on generic name. *: CMS says this average reflects multiple routes of administration, which may have different unit prices. Only NADAC NDCs whose FDA route includes ORAL point at this name (31 of the 42 the name join matched); NDCs of another route or with no known FDA route do not. 3 of the 31 NDCs that point at this name are not listed in the FDA NDC Directory as packages of their own; their route was taken from FDA's record for the same product (labeler and product code). 40 of 42 NADAC NDCs joined to this name are priced per EA (2 per ML): CMS's average mixes those units.
