Method. Verified, official DRAP maximum retail prices on validated, published products. Each row compares brands of the identical generic, strength, dosage form and pack size, so it is a true like-for-like comparison. Prices are what the pack costs, not the price per tablet. Intravenous fluids, and groups with a single implausible outlier, are excluded. Source: Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (DRAP). As of 2026-10-27.
