Learn how to save money on Amoxicillin/Clavulanate (Augmentin) in 2026. Compare cash prices, discount cards, coupons, and patient assistance programs.
If you've been prescribed Amoxicillin/Clavulanate (also known by the brand name Augmentin), you might be wondering how much it's going to cost — especially if you don't have insurance or your plan has a high deductible. The good news is that Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is available as an affordable generic, and there are several ways to bring your cost down even further.
In this guide, we'll break down the actual prices you can expect to pay in 2026 and show you every way to save.
The cash price for generic Amoxicillin/Clavulanate varies depending on the strength, quantity, and pharmacy. Here's what a typical prescription costs at retail in 2026:
Prices vary significantly between pharmacies. Walmart and Costco tend to have the lowest retail prices, while CVS and Walgreens often charge more. It always pays to compare.
Even if you're paying cash, you don't have to pay the full retail price. Free prescription discount cards can cut your cost significantly:
GoodRx is the most widely used prescription discount platform. For generic Amoxicillin/Clavulanate 875/125 mg (20 tablets), GoodRx coupons typically bring the price down to $10-$20 at most pharmacies. Simply search for your medication on goodrx.com, compare prices at pharmacies near you, and show the coupon at the counter.
SingleCare offers similar discounts. Prices for a standard course of Amoxicillin/Clavulanate typically range from $12-$22 with a SingleCare card. You can use it at over 35,000 pharmacies nationwide.
RxSaver compares discount card prices across multiple programs to find you the lowest price. It's worth checking alongside GoodRx and SingleCare, as the cheapest option varies by pharmacy.
Several other free discount cards can help reduce your cost:
Pro tip: Discount cards are free to use and work whether or not you have insurance. If your insurance copay is higher than the discount card price (which happens more often than you'd think), use the discount card instead.
Walmart's $4 prescription program includes plain amoxicillin but Amoxicillin/Clavulanate may cost slightly more — typically $10-$15 for a standard course. It's still one of the cheapest options available. Check with your local Walmart pharmacy for current pricing.
Because Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is an inexpensive generic, there are no manufacturer savings programs or copay cards available. However, patients with financial hardship have other options:
NeedyMeds maintains a database of patient assistance programs, discount drug cards, and other resources for people who can't afford their medications. While Amoxicillin/Clavulanate itself is affordable, NeedyMeds can help if you're managing multiple prescriptions.
RxAssist is a comprehensive database of patient assistance programs run by pharmaceutical companies, government agencies, and non-profits. Search their database for programs you may qualify for.
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and community health clinics often have their own pharmacy programs with deeply discounted medications. If you're uninsured or underinsured, these can be excellent resources. Many participate in the 340B Drug Pricing Program, which allows them to purchase medications at significantly reduced costs and pass those savings to patients.
Many states offer their own prescription assistance programs for low-income residents, seniors, or people with disabilities. Check with your state's health department to see what's available in your area.
Make sure your prescription is written for generic Amoxicillin/Clavulanate, not brand-name Augmentin. The generic is therapeutically identical and costs a fraction of the brand price. Most pharmacists will automatically substitute generic unless the prescription says "dispense as written."
Prices can vary by $20-$40 or more between pharmacies in the same town. Before filling your prescription, compare prices at:
Medfinder helps you find pharmacies near you that have Amoxicillin/Clavulanate in stock, so you don't waste time driving to a pharmacy that's sold out. Finding the medication on the first try saves you time, gas, and the stress of being sick without your antibiotic.
This typically doesn't apply to Amoxicillin/Clavulanate since it's prescribed as a short course (7-14 days), but if you have a condition requiring longer-term use, mail-order pharmacies often offer better per-unit pricing on 90-day supplies.
If you have insurance, verify that generic Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is on your plan's formulary (it almost always is, as a Tier 1 generic). Your copay should be $0-$15 in most cases. If your plan charges more, the discount card route may actually be cheaper.
Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is one of the more affordable antibiotics on the market, especially in generic form. With a discount card, most patients can fill a standard prescription for $10-$25 — and sometimes less. The biggest challenge in 2026 isn't the price — it's finding it in stock.
Use Medfinder to locate pharmacies with availability, grab a free discount card before you go, and ask for generic. You'll get the medication you need at a price you can afford.
