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.

What is Dantrium used for?
Dantrium (dantrolene) is a muscle relaxant that works directly on the muscles. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), Dantrium capsules are used:
- To control long-term muscle stiffness and spasms (spasticity) caused by conditions such as spinal cord injury, stroke, cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis.
- Before surgery, to help prevent malignant hyperthermia (a rare, dangerous reaction to some anesthesia drugs) in people known or strongly suspected to be at risk, and after a malignant hyperthermia crisis to help prevent it from coming back.
Boxed warning: the label warns that Dantrium can cause liver injury (hepatitis), which has sometimes been fatal. The risk is higher at higher doses, in women, in people over 35 and in people taking other medicines. The label calls for regular liver blood tests, the lowest dose that works, and stopping if there's no benefit after 45 days. It isn't for muscle spasm from rheumatic conditions or for people with active liver disease. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Dantrium from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Dantrium, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic dantrolene 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, Dantrium 25 mg capsules are listed as marketed by Knight Therapeutics; the Canadian 100 mg capsule was cancelled in 2017, so Canadian 100 mg packs aren't priced here (Health Canada, checked 2026-11-12). In the U.K., Norgine sells Dantrium 25 mg and 100 mg capsules.

Is there a generic Dantrium?
Yes. FDA-approved generic dantrolene capsules have been sold in the U.S. since 2005, in 25, 50 and 100 mg. Ask your pharmacist whether a generic can fill your prescription.

It depends on your Part D plan's drug list. In 2026, Part D deductibles are capped at $615 and out-of-pocket costs for covered drugs at $2,100 a year. People with limited income can apply for Extra Help.
