What is in the Manufacturer/Pricing section of Epocrates drug monographs?
The Manufacturer/Pricing section of Epocrates Rx monographs includes content about the manufacturer of the drug or identifies it as a generic product, identifies the legal status of the product (e.g., OTC, Rx, or controlled substance), and gives retail pricing. Epocrates considers the manufacturer to be the company a health care professional would contact for information about the drug, even if another company physically manufactures or distributes the drug. Epocrates’ pricing partner, drugstore.com, provides retail prices for the most frequently dispensed quantities of each medication. At this time, we are unable to provide pricing information for products that are not sold via drugstore.com’s prescription pharmacy division because this information is not included in the drugstore.com data we receive.
