The spread
0.19× estimated
These two figures may not measure the same thing
At 0.19×, the Medicare figure is 0.2 times what pharmacies pay or less. 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 “Fentanyl” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

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 1 patch? 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 FENTANYL 62.5 MCG/HR PATCH 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 Fentanyl / Fentanyl: 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.
- Why does this page start at 1 patch?
- NADAC prices this product per EA, and the FDA NDC Directory lists 3 of its 5 NDCs (it does not list the other 2) as dosage forms “PATCH”, “PATCH, EXTENDED RELEASE” with route “TRANSDERMAL”. Only a tablet, capsule, lozenge or troche with route “ORAL”, or a tablet or film with route “SUBLINGUAL” or “BUCCAL”, starts at 30, and none of these is one. So the card starts at 1 patch, priced per patch, rather than guess how many make up a fill; change it to match your prescription.
