FDA gives its dosage form as “injection, powder, lyophilized, for solution” and “injection, powder, for solution” and its route as intravenous.

FDA lists 9 labelers (the companies named on the label) for its NDCs, among them Hikma Pharmaceuticals USA Inc., Sagent Pharmaceuticals and Camber Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

The NADAC file of 2026-10-14 prices it under 11 NDCs (National Drug Codes); the FDA directory lists 10 of them.

What pharmacies pay

Pharmacies pay $2.37 for 1 unit (EA) (1 × $2.374 per EA, rounded to the cent), by the CMS NADAC file of 2026-10-14; that price took effect on 2026-03-18. That is what pharmacies pay their suppliers, not what they charge you.

NADAC’s explanation codes for it: 4, carried forward from the previous file; 5, calculated based on package size; 6, the CMS Covered Outpatient Drug Product File S/I/N drug category was not applied when grouping drugs for the calculation.

The NADAC of all 11 NDCs was carried forward from an earlier file (NADAC explanation code 2 or 4), not newly surveyed: those prices took effect on 2026-03-18. The file is new; the price is not.

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 unit (EA)? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
• These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
