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 11, 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.

Xeloda (capecitabine) 150 mg and 500 mg tablets for colon, rectal, breast and other cancers. FDA-approved generic capecitabine is sold in the U.S.

Xeloda cost at a glance

  • Generic Xeloda is sold in the U.S. The FDA has approved generic capecitabine tablets (150 and 500 mg) from many companies, rated equivalent to Xeloda (FDA Orange Book). The 2026 drug price filing lists 120-tablet bottles of generic capecitabine 500 mg at list prices as low as $60 (Novadoz) and $63 (CivicaScript), and $206.50 from Teva (Texas DSHS).
  • U.S. list price: $5,422.31 for a bottle of 120 tablets of brand Xeloda 500 mg, about $45.19 a tablet (the maker's wholesale price before discounts, Texas DSHS).
  • Brand status: the FDA's Drugs@FDA database lists Xeloda as discontinued, but H2-Pharma's Xeloda 500 mg tablets are still listed with the FDA (FDA drug listing) and have a 2026 U.S. list price, so this page treats the brand as still sold.
  • How we count: prices are per tablet, with each pharmacy's packs listed as sold. Xeloda is taken twice a day in cycles (usually 14 days on, 7 days off), and the label sets each dose by body size, so how many tablets you need varies.
  • From online pharmacies abroad: $3.72 to $5.13 per tablet for brand Xeloda 500 mg, before shipping (checked Nov 11, 2026). The U.S. list price is about $45.19 a tablet.
  • 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).

Xeloda coupons and savings programs

How do you pay?

We show the programs that usually fit, cheapest first where we know the price. Private insurance means a plan through work or one you buy yourself. Programs set their own rules, so check the terms before you count on one. We don't save this choice.

eDrugSearch does not offer its own Xeloda coupons. These programs can help with the cost of Xeloda or generic capecitabine:

  • 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)

Is there a generic Xeloda?

Yes.

What is Xeloda used for?

Xeloda (capecitabine) is a chemotherapy medicine taken by mouth. The body turns it into fluorouracil (5-FU), which stops cancer cells from growing. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used to treat:

  • Colon cancer (stage III) after surgery, alone or with other chemotherapy.
  • Locally advanced rectal cancer in adults, with radiation, around the time of surgery.
  • Colorectal cancer that can't be removed by surgery or has spread, alone or with other chemotherapy.
  • Advanced or metastatic breast cancer, alone or with docetaxel.
  • Advanced stomach, esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer in adults, with other medicines.
  • Pancreatic cancer in adults after surgery, with other chemotherapy.

Xeloda comes as 150 mg tablets in bottles of 60 and 500 mg tablets in bottles of 120. The label's doses are based on body surface area and are usually taken twice a day for the first 14 days of each 21-day cycle. Boxed warning: people with complete DPD deficiency (a rare inherited enzyme problem) can have serious or fatal side effects, and the label says to test for it before starting unless treatment is urgent. Xeloda can also raise bleeding risk in people taking warfarin or similar blood thinners. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.

Is it safe to order Xeloda from Canada?

Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Xeloda, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic capecitabine 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. Health Canada lists brand Xeloda as cancelled there (post-market), so Canadian pharmacies may carry only generic capecitabine (Health Canada).
