Key Takeaways

  • The US list price rose 16% in two years. AbbVie lists Vraylar at $1,594.82 for a 30-day supply as of January 2026; CMS recorded $1,376 for 2024 (our calculation: $1,594.82 ÷ $1,376). US pharmacies’ cost per capsule rose 5% on January 2, 2026 (CMS NADAC).
  • $770 for Medicare from 2027. Medicare’s negotiated price for a 30-day supply takes effect on January 1, 2027 — 44% below the 2024 list price, according to CMS. Per capsule it is $26.99 for every strength, or $810 for 30 capsules (our calculation).
  • Europe: about $92 to $147 for 30 days. Official prices for Reagila, scaled from packs of 28 to 30 capsules and converted at ECB rates: Austria $92, the Netherlands $106, the UK $115, Switzerland $147 (our calculation).
  • Germany: a benefit verdict, but no price ceiling. Germany’s Joint Federal Committee found no proven added benefit for acute schizophrenia, and a hint of minor added benefit only for long-term treatment with mainly negative symptoms (2018). Cariprazine has no Festbetrag, and France does not list it.

Vraylar / Reagila Price by Country (November 2026)

Vraylar (cariprazine; sold in Europe as Reagila) is one capsule once a day — 1.5 to 6 mg for schizophrenia, lower maximums for depression (FDA label) — so 30 days = 30 capsules. In the US, the UK, Switzerland and Austria every strength costs the same per pack; in the Netherlands the 3, 4.5 and 6 mg capsules cost more than 1.5 mg, and we show 3 mg. European packs hold 28 capsules; we scale to 30 (our calculation: pack price ÷ 28 × 30). US dollars at European Central Bank reference rates of November 6, 2026. The price types differ — list price, negotiated price, pharmacy acquisition cost, retail price — and are labelled.

30 days = 30 capsules. US: AbbVie list price (January 2026), CMS data file ($26.986339 per capsule from 2027 × 30, our calculation), CMS NADAC for 3 mg (as of November 4, 2026). UK: NHS dm+d. Switzerland: BAG public price. Austria: Erstattungskodex, November 2026 (excl. VAT). Netherlands: Zorginstituut average price for 3 mg (to November 1, 2026). Packs of 28 scaled to 30 capsules and converted at ECB rates of November 6, 2026 (our calculation).

What the Numbers Mean

Why the US price went up, not down

AbbVie’s list price of $1,594.82 (January 2026) is about 16% above the $1,376 that CMS recorded for 2024 (our calculation). NADAC for a 3 mg capsule was $48.52951 from December 17, 2025 and $50.95598 from January 2, 2026 — a rise of 5% (our calculation). The negotiated Medicare price of $770 takes effect on January 1, 2027; in 2024 about 118,000 people with Medicare Part D used Vraylar, and Part D spent $1.14 billion on it before rebates (CMS).

Europe: 6% to 9% of the US list price

Austria, the Netherlands, the UK and Switzerland publish an official price for Reagila — about $92 to $147 for 30 capsules at ECB rates, or 6% to 9% of the US list price (our calculation: $92 ÷ $1,595 and $147 ÷ $1,595). Medicare’s 2027 price is still more than five times the Swiss price (our calculation: $810 ÷ $147).

Germany: what the benefit assessment found

In 2018 the Joint Federal Committee (G-BA) found no proven added benefit for acute treatment of schizophrenia or long-term treatment without predominant negative symptoms, and a hint of a minor added benefit over risperidone for long-term treatment with predominantly negative symptoms. Cariprazine has no Festbetrag, and we found no freely published official German price.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

AbbVie lists Vraylar at $1,594.82 for a 30-day supply (as of January 2026), and US pharmacies paid about $1,526 for 30 capsules of 3 mg in November 2026 (CMS NADAC). Medicare’s negotiated price from January 1, 2027 is $770 for a 30-day supply (CMS). In Europe, cariprazine is sold as Reagila: £80.36 for 28 capsules in the UK, €76.75 in Austria (excl. VAT), €88.20 in the Netherlands and CHF 112.65 in Switzerland — about $92 to $147 for 30 days at ECB rates.

Is Reagila the same as Vraylar?

Both contain cariprazine. In the EU, Reagila is authorised for schizophrenia in 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6 mg capsules (EMA); in the US, Vraylar is also approved for bipolar I disorder and major depressive disorder (FDA label).

Does a higher dose cost more?

Not in the US, the UK, Switzerland or Austria: every strength costs the same per capsule or per pack there (CMS data file, NADAC, dm+d, BAG, Erstattungskodex). In the Netherlands 3, 4.5 and 6 mg cost €88.20 for 28 capsules and 1.5 mg €72.56.

What do patients pay?

AbbVie says commercially insured patients may pay as little as $0 with its savings card. In England each prescription item costs £9.90; in Switzerland insured patients pay a 10% share after the deductible; in Austria a €7.55 prescription fee; in the Netherlands it is fully reimbursed but counts toward the annual deductible.

Is there a generic Vraylar?

Not that we found: CMS negotiates only drugs without generic competition, the US pharmacy price survey (NADAC, November 4, 2026) lists only Vraylar, and the Dutch price list shows no generic cariprazine.
