Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Cafergot from Canada?
Each row is one product from one pharmacy, shown in the pack size with the lowest price per unit; its other pack sizes are listed under “other pack sizes”. Price per unit = the pack price divided by the units in the pack, before shipping; we sort by it and don't assume how long a pack lasts. Total with shipping = the pack price plus the pharmacy's shipping fee for one order. Prices checked Nov 12, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars (converted when a pharmacy prices in Canadian dollars). 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. 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, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards.

Cafergot (ergotamine tartrate and caffeine) 1 mg/100 mg tablets, taken at the start of a migraine or vascular headache. A generic is sold in the U.S.
Cafergot cost at a glance
- Brand Cafergot in the U.S.: Trifluent Pharma has distributed Cafergot tablets since March 2026, listed with the FDA under the same approval as generic ergotamine tartrate and caffeine tablets (ANDA 040590) (FDA NDC Directory). The original Cafergot tablets (Novartis) are listed by the FDA as discontinued (FDA Orange Book). The 2026 Texas price filing has no row for Cafergot, so we can't show a U.S. list price for it.
- Generic ergotamine and caffeine: Cintex's tablets, made under the same FDA approval, list at $980.00 for a bottle of 40 and $1,110.22 for 100 (the maker's wholesale price before discounts; Texas DSHS).
- How we compare: Cafergot is taken only when a migraine starts, so there's no set number of tablets a month. The label allows at most 6 tablets per attack and 10 a week. We list each pharmacy's packs as sold and compare the price per tablet.
- From online pharmacies abroad: $0.73 to $0.74 per tablet of brand Cafergot 1/100 mg, before shipping (checked Nov 12, 2026). The Cafergot sold abroad is made in Turkey. Packs made for other countries are not FDA-approved.
- With Medicare: your cost depends on your Part D plan. In 2026, deductibles are capped at $615 and yearly out-of-pocket costs for covered drugs at $2,100 (Medicare.gov).

Is there a generic Cafergot?
Yes. The FDA approved generic ergotamine tartrate and caffeine 1 mg/100 mg tablets (ANDA 040590) on September 16, 2005. Cintex sells them, and today's U.S. Cafergot is made under the same approval.

Outside the U.S.: Online pharmacies abroad may also sell generic ergotamine and caffeine made for other markets. Those packs are not FDA-approved, and the price table labels them that way.

What is Cafergot used for?
Cafergot combines ergotamine, an ergot medicine that narrows blood vessels, with caffeine. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- To stop or prevent vascular headaches, such as migraine and cluster headaches ("histaminic cephalalgia").
The label says to start at the first sign of an attack, with no more than 6 tablets for one attack and 10 in a week, and that it isn't for daily use. Boxed warning: taking it with strong CYP3A4 blockers, such as some HIV medicines and antibiotics like clarithromycin, has caused serious and life-threatening loss of blood flow, so those combinations must not be used. It also must not be used during pregnancy or by people with blood vessel or heart disease, high blood pressure, or liver or kidney problems. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Cafergot from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Cafergot, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic ergotamine and caffeine 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. In Canada, Novartis's Cafergot tablets were cancelled in 2014, so the Cafergot sold by online pharmacies abroad comes from Turkey (Health Canada, checked 2026-11-12).
