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. “Fee not published” means the pharmacy doesn’t show its shipping fee before checkout, so that row’s total is the medicine price only.

Maxalt-MLT cost at a glance
- U.S. list price: $834.39 for a carton of 18 brand Maxalt-MLT 10 mg tablets, the maker's wholesale price before discounts (Texas DSHS). Organon no longer sells the 5 mg brand tablets in the U.S.
- Generic Maxalt-MLT is sold in the U.S., for far less. Several companies sell FDA-approved generic rizatriptan orally disintegrating tablets (5 mg and 10 mg), rated equivalent to Maxalt-MLT (FDA Orange Book). In the 2026 filing, Bionpharma lists 18 tablets of 10 mg at $17.80 (Texas DSHS).
- How we compare: per tablet. Maxalt-MLT is taken only when a migraine starts, so there's no set number of tablets a month. We list each pharmacy's packs as sold and compare the price per tablet.
- From online pharmacies abroad: $2.97 to $26.67 per tablet of brand Maxalt-MLT 10 mg, before shipping (checked Nov 12, 2026). 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).

What is Maxalt-MLT used for?
Maxalt-MLT (rizatriptan) is a triptan, a migraine medicine that narrows widened blood vessels in the head and blocks pain signals. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- To treat a migraine attack, with or without aura, in adults and in children and teens 6 to 17 years old.
Maxalt-MLT is for treating an attack, not preventing migraines. The label's adult dose is 5 mg or 10 mg; a second dose can be taken at least 2 hours later, up to 30 mg in 24 hours (5 mg doses and a 15 mg daily limit with propranolol). Children 6 to 17 take 5 mg (under 40 kg) or 10 mg (40 kg or more). The tablet is placed on the tongue and melts, no water needed. The U.S. brand is now sold only as 10 mg; generic 5 mg melt tablets are still sold. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Maxalt-MLT from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Maxalt-MLT, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic rizatriptan ODT 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 it's sold as Maxalt RPD (5 mg and 10 mg) by Organon Canada, listed as marketed (Health Canada Drug Product Database, checked 2026-11-14).
