Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Zykadia from Canada?
90-day cost = 270 tablets at the usual dose of 3 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. “Fee not published” means the pharmacy doesn’t show its shipping fee before checkout, so that row’s total is the medicine price only.

What is Zykadia used for?
Zykadia (ceritinib) is an ALK kinase inhibitor, a targeted lung cancer medicine. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- For adults with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread (metastatic) and is ALK-positive, as found by an FDA-approved test.
The label's dose is 450 mg once a day with food. The U.S. label lists both 150 mg capsules and 150 mg tablets; U.S. pharmacies now carry the tablets. Doses are lowered for some side effects and for severe liver problems. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Zykadia from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Zykadia, check your insurance and Novartis's support programs first, and plan around shipping times so you don't run short. 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 Zykadia 150 mg capsules from Novartis Canada as marketed (Health Canada Drug Product Database, checked 2026-11-14).
