Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Boniva from Canada?
90-day cost = 3 tablets at the usual dose of 1 a month, bought as one order of whole packs with one shipping fee. 90-day cost is worked out from each pharmacy's real order size so different pack sizes compare fairly. Orders are kept within a 3-month supply (92 days); a pack that is larger than that is marked and not used for the lowest price at the top of this page. Prices checked Nov 11, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars. Savings compare with the U.S. list price. The lowest price at the top of this page uses only packs whose maker the pharmacy names, or whose product country and ships-from country it states. Price is the pharmacy's own price for one pack, as shown on its website (converted to U.S. dollars when it prices in Canadian dollars). Delivery is the pharmacy's own estimate for the shipping option shown, not a promise; some pharmacies count from when they receive your prescription or ship the order. Total = the packs needed + shipping. When those packs don't add up to exactly 90 days, the row shows what that order costs and, under it, what it works out to for 90 days; we sort by the 90-day amount so pack sizes compare fairly. Prices change often; confirm at checkout. U.S. rows: the cash price a U.S. pharmacy published on its own website on the date shown, for whole fills, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards. “Fee not published” means the pharmacy doesn’t show its shipping fee before checkout, so that row’s total is the medicine price only.

eDrugSearch does not offer its own Boniva coupons. Brand Boniva is no longer sold in the U.S., so there is no maker coupon or copay card to use. These programs can still help with generic ibandronate:
- Medicare Extra Help: if you have Medicare and limited income, Extra Help lowers what you pay for prescriptions. (Social Security)
- Medicare Prescription Payment Plan: a free Medicare option that spreads your drug costs into monthly payments across the year. It doesn't lower the total, but it can make costs easier to manage. (Medicare.gov)

Yes. The FDA has approved generic ibandronate 150 mg tablets from several companies, including Apotex, Dr. Reddy's, Aurobindo and Macleods. The first were approved on March 19, 2012. Aurobindo's generic has been listed as on the market since March 11, 2016. The FDA lists brand Boniva as discontinued in the U.S.

What is Boniva used for?
Boniva (ibandronate) is a bisphosphonate, a type of medicine that slows bone loss. According to its FDA label (FDA), Boniva tablets are used to:
- Treat osteoporosis in women after menopause.
- Prevent osteoporosis in women after menopause.
Boniva is one 150 mg tablet taken once a month. The label says to take it with plain water at least 60 minutes before the first food, drink or other medicine of the day, and to stay upright for 60 minutes afterward. The label has no boxed warning. It says the best length of treatment isn't known, so prescribers review it from time to time. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Boniva from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and FDA-approved generic ibandronate is sold in the U.S., so compare its price before you order. Federal law generally doesn't allow individuals to import prescription drugs, though under its personal importation policy the FDA has long used enforcement discretion for some personal-use shipments, generally no more than a three-month supply (FDA). Congress has said enforcement against individuals should focus on imports that pose a significant threat to public health (Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act section 804(j)(1), 21 U.S.C. 384(j)(1)). You need a prescription from your doctor. New U.S. Customs rules for mailed orders start January 20, 2027. Brand Boniva is no longer sold in the U.S. In the U.K. the brand name is Bonviva. We found no Boniva or Bonviva listing in Health Canada's drug database.
