Jardiance Price by Country (November 2026)

Jardiance 10 mg, one tablet a day, so 30 days = 30 tablets. Each country's own official price; where the official pack has 28 tablets or the source gives a price per tablet, we convert to 30 tablets (our calculation: pack price ÷ tablets × 30). US dollars at European Central Bank reference rates of October 30, 2026. The price types differ — negotiated price, list price, pharmacy acquisition cost, retail price — and are labelled. There is no current US list price from the maker that we could verify, so we show the 2023 list price as reported by CMS.

30 days = 30 tablets of 10 mg. US: CMS negotiated price and 2023 list price (2026 fact sheet), CMS NADAC (October 28, 2026). UK: NHS dm+d. France: BDPM official price excluding dispensing fee (September 29, 2026). Switzerland: BAG public price. Netherlands: Zorginstituut average price per tablet (to November 1, 2026). Converted at ECB rates of October 30, 2026; packs of 28 and per-tablet prices scaled to 30 tablets (our calculation).

What the Numbers Mean

Medicare's price is a negotiated price, not what everyone pays

Jardiance was one of the first ten drugs in Medicare's price negotiation under the Inflation Reduction Act. The negotiated $197 for a 30-day supply has applied to Medicare since January 1, 2026, 66% below the 2023 list price of $573 (CMS). CMS's price file of November 2, 2026 adjusts the price for inflation to $202.33 from January 1, 2027. It does not set the price for private insurance or for people paying cash. Pharmacies still buy the drug at about $336 for 30 tablets (NADAC) and are refunded Medicare's difference by the drug maker afterwards.

Europe: official prices far below Medicare's

France, the UK, Switzerland and the Netherlands publish an official price for the same tablet. Converted to 30 tablets at ECB rates they range from about $41 in France to $72 in Switzerland — about 21% to 37% of Medicare's negotiated price and 12% to 21% of what US pharmacies pay (our calculation: $41 and $72 ÷ $197, and ÷ $336). France and the UK charge the same for 10 mg and 25 mg.

Germany: no price ceiling

Empagliflozin is not on the German statutory price-ceiling (Festbetrag) list of October 15, 2026. Insured patients pay the usual co-payment of 10% of the price, at least €5 and at most €10 per pack; from 2027 the limits rise to €7.50 and €15.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Jardiance cost in the US compared with other countries?

Medicare has paid a negotiated $197 for a 30-day supply of Jardiance since January 1, 2026; the 2023 list price was $573 (CMS). US pharmacies pay about $336 for 30 tablets of 10 mg (CMS NADAC, October 2026). Official prices elsewhere: €36.59 for 30 tablets in France, £36.59 for 28 tablets in the UK, CHF 59.30 for 30 tablets in Switzerland and about €1.41 per tablet in the Netherlands — roughly $41 to $72 for 30 tablets at ECB rates.

What do patients pay for Jardiance?

In England each prescription item costs £9.90. France reimburses 65% of the official price. In Germany statutory insurance covers it with a co-payment of 10% of the price, at least €5 and at most €10 per pack. In Switzerland insured patients pay a 10% share after their deductible, and in the Netherlands it is fully reimbursed but counts toward the annual deductible. In the US it depends on the insurance plan.

Is the 25 mg tablet more expensive?

Not in these official lists. France and the UK list Jardiance 25 mg at the same price as 10 mg (€36.59 for 30 and £36.59 for 28 tablets), and US pharmacies pay practically the same per tablet for both strengths (NADAC). The Netherlands lists 25 mg slightly higher.

Why is Medicare's price lower than what pharmacies pay?

The $197 is Medicare's negotiated price for a 30-day supply. NADAC (about $336 for 30 tablets) measures what pharmacies pay to acquire the drug; under the negotiation program the drug maker refunds pharmacies the difference afterwards (CMS), so the two numbers measure different things.

What does Jardiance cost in Germany?

Germany has no statutory price ceiling (Festbetrag) for empagliflozin: it is not on the list of October 15, 2026. We found no current official pharmacy price that is freely published, so we show none; the co-payment rules for statutory insurance apply.
