PrEP Price List

PrEP­nu fre­quent­ly receives ques­tions regard­ing the price of PrEP in Dutch phar­ma­cies, since this price varies great­ly between the dif­fer­ent phar­ma­cies. In Octo­ber 2018, we there­fore inquired about the price of PrEP in a num­ber of phar­ma­cies in the 6 largest cities of the Nether­lands. A num­ber of these phar­ma­cies respond­ed to our request and pro­vid­ed us with the prices list­ed below. The list has since been con­tin­u­ous­ly updated

Lat­est update: Sep­tem­ber 27, 2023

FIRST READ THESE REMARKS TO AVOID MISUNDERSTANDINGS!

✯ All prices are for a pack of 30 tablets (a month’s worth when using PrEP daily).

✯ The listed prices are indications of prices, not guarantees. Prices of drugs, including PrEP, vary greatly from month to month, making these prices quickly outdated. We have however requested pharmacies to inform us about substantial increases and decreases of their prices.

✯ The listed prices are those of the cheapest generic PrEP available at the local pharmacy. Frequently however pharmaceutical companies have difficulties supplying pharmacies with specific drugs, forcing pharmacies to provide higher priced PrEP to their clients. If this is the case inquire with other pharmacies or the with the pharmacist about alternatives.

✯ Dutch pharmacies provide a variety of generic PrEP brands. All types of PrEP are of high and equal quality. Only the packaging can differ; some brands offer both bottles and blister packs.

✯ PrEP needs to be prescribed by a healthcare provider. Ask for a prescription with your local GGD (sexual health clinic) or your general practitioner. If both are unwilling to help you can contact PrEPnu, we will try to help you out.
