How much does Galliprant cost?
Galliprant (grapiprant) is a piprant (EP4 prostaglandin receptor antagonist) from Elanco, used for osteoarthritis pain and inflammation in dogs. Here's what it actually costs in the US — and how to pay less.
Typical monthly cost
$50–$130 / month
Heartland sells at ~$1.74-$1.83/tablet; GoodRx coupon from $66.60; vet-office retail sits at the top of the range.
Galliprant price by weight
| Weight tier | Price | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Small dogs (20 mg tablet) | $50–$75 | per 30 tablets |
| Medium dogs (60 mg tablet) | $60–$100 | per 30 tablets |
| Large dogs (100 mg tablet) | $70–$130 | per 30 tablets |
Label dosing (for cost context, not a recommendation): Public label: 2 mg/kg once daily — strength needed scales with body weight, which drives the monthly price.
Why it costs what it does
Galliprant comes as: flavored tablet (20, 60, 100 mg), once daily at home. A few things set the price:
- No generic competition at our last check, so the manufacturer effectively sets the price.
- Dosing scales with body weight — bigger pets need bigger or multiple doses, so weight is the main price driver.
Cheaper alternatives to ask your vet about
Generic carprofen or meloxicam are dramatically cheaper ($10-$40/month) — Galliprant's pitch is a gentler mechanism, not price. No generic grapiprant at verification.
Never switch, split, or stop a prescription on your own — bring these options up at your next visit and let your vet make the call for your pet.
Before you fill
Price-check before you buy
The same prescription can vary 2–3× between the vet's shelf, online pet pharmacies, and retail. A written prescription is yours to fill anywhere — vets are required to provide one on request.

How we verify these prices
Prices aggregated 2026-06-11 from public retailer listings (Chewy Rx, Petco, Heartland Vet Supply, EntirelyPets Rx, BudgetPetCare, PetBucket), GoodRx coupon pages, manufacturer pages, and 2026 vet-cost guides. Vet-administered injectables (Librela, Solensia, Cytopoint, Adequan loading) use published clinic-price surveys because the drug is not sold direct to consumers. Ranges are medication-only unless noted; exam/administration fees are flagged separately. Prices move — re-verify before publishing figures on a page, and show the per-item verified date.
