Albuterol: what pharmacies actually pay

Prices below are the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) — the federal government's weekly survey of what pharmacies actually pay their wholesalers, as of 07/22/2026. Your pharmacy's cash price includes their markup and dispensing cost, so it will be higher — but if it's many times this number, that's a signal to shop around.

Form & strength	Pharmacy cost	Unit	Type
ALBUTEROL 2.5 MG/0.5 ML SOL	$0.53	per tablet/unit	Generic
ALBUTEROL HFA 90 MCG INHALER	$1.83	per gram	Generic
ALBUTEROL SUL 0.63 MG/3 ML SOL	$0.22	per mL	Generic
ALBUTEROL SUL 1.25 MG/3 ML SOL	$0.20	per mL	Generic
ALBUTEROL SUL 2.5 MG/3 ML SOLN	$0.06	per mL	Generic
ALBUTEROL SULF 2 MG/5 ML SYRUP	$0.04	per mL	Generic
ALBUTEROL SULFATE 2 MG TAB	$0.27	per tablet/unit	Generic
ALBUTEROL SULFATE 4 MG TAB	$0.27	per tablet/unit	Generic

Rough math: a typical 30-day supply of one tablet/day equals 30× the per-unit cost.
