From TrumpRx.gov, read October 28, 2026. Its page opens on this price; other strengths and amounts are priced there too. With insurance, check your co-pay first: it may be lower.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Nicotrol itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Nicotrol is the only choice; ask the pharmacy for its cash price, or your plan what it charges.

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Nicotrol’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.
