Brand Comparisons

In this section, we compare brands in the same classes of drug, assuming the same clinical efficacy. The comparisons show the NHS cost and the difference in profitability taking into account wholesalers discount (reduced and full) and manufacturers' discount schemes (MDS). Discounts are offered and some disappear, often without notice. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information supplied.

Each month we will be adding to the library of Comparisons and updating information as and when changes to discounts or prices occur.

Comparisons include:

  • Diabetes - Gliptins, Gliflozins, GLP1 agonists

  • Women's Health - Estradiol, Desogestrel, Levonorgestrel IUCDs

  • Cardio-vascular - NOACs, Diltiazem

  • Respiratory - LAMA, LABA. ICS and Combinations

 

Discount data and pricing is taking from the DM&D Browser and Lexon as well as the mainline wholesaler discounts that we have been able to verify. Dispex assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this site. The information contained in this site is provided on an “as is” basis with no guarantees of completeness, accuracy, usefulness or timeliness.
