Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Nesina from Canada?
90-day cost = 90 tablets at the usual dose of 1 a day, 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 12, 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.

What is Nesina used for?
Nesina (alogliptin) is a DPP-4 inhibitor. It helps the body release more insulin after meals and lowers blood sugar. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- Along with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
- It is not for type 1 diabetes.
Nesina comes as 6.25 mg, 12.5 mg and 25 mg tablets. The label's dose is 25 mg once a day, with or without food; it's 12.5 mg for moderate kidney problems and 6.25 mg for severe kidney problems. The tablets shouldn't be split. Nesina has no boxed warning. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Nesina from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Nesina, compare U.S. prices, including the authorized generic alogliptin, 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, Takeda sells Nesina 6.25, 12.5 and 25 mg tablets under the same name (Health Canada, checked 2026-11-12). In the U.K. and Europe, Takeda sells it as Vipidia.

Yes. Padagis sells alogliptin as an authorized generic: it's Takeda's own medicine, sold under the generic name since 2016. The FDA Orange Book lists no other generic. Ask your pharmacist whether it can fill your prescription.
Is Nesina the same as Vipidia?
Vipidia is the name Takeda uses for alogliptin in the U.K. and Europe. It has the same active ingredient and strengths (6.25, 12.5 and 25 mg) as Nesina.
