What Does the 15% Import Tariff Do to IVF Medication Prices?
The Trump Rx program has been marketed as a lower-cost import option. But the advertised prices don’t include a 15% import tariff. When you add that back, the real cost is higher than Fast IVF on every comparable medication.
- Gonal-F 300 IU – Trump Rx: $168 + 15% = ~$193 | Fast IVF: $135
- Gonal-F 450 IU – Trump Rx: $252 + 15% = ~$290 | Fast IVF: $219
- Gonal-F 900 IU – Trump Rx: $504 + 15% = ~$580 | Fast IVF: $399
- Ovidrel – Trump Rx: $84 + 15% = ~$97 | Fast IVF: $72

Which Medications Show the Biggest Price Differences?
The standout is Orgalutran (Ganirelix). Other international providers charge $57 per dose. Fast IVF offers it at $25 – less than half the price. For patients using Orgalutran across a full antagonist cycle, that difference adds up quickly.
Gonal-F savings are also significant. At the 900 IU pen, Fast IVF is $181 less than the tariff-adjusted Trump Rx price and $71 less than other international sources. Most IVF stimulation cycles require 2–3 pens depending on your response, so multiply those savings accordingly.
Cetrotide and Ovidrel follow the same pattern. Other international providers charge $57 for Cetrotide – Fast IVF charges $35. Ovidrel is $82 at other international sources versus $72 at Fast IVF.
Are European-Source IVF Medications the Same as US Brand-Name Drugs?
Yes. Fast IVF sources European brand-name IVF medications from licensed European pharmacies. The active ingredients are identical to US versions. According to the FDA’s drug approval process, approved active ingredients meet consistent quality standards globally. The price difference comes from European pharmaceutical pricing regulations – not from any difference in the medication itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are IVF medication prices lower at international providers?
European governments regulate drug pricing at the national level, which keeps costs lower than the US market. Fast IVF has sourced European-brand IVF medications through licensed pharmacies since 2005 and passes those savings directly to patients.
Does the Trump Rx program cover all IVF medications?
No. Based on the comparison data, Trump Rx does not list Menopur or Orgalutran. Fast IVF carries a wider range of IVF medications, and all prices include no additional tariffs.
How much can I save on a full IVF medication cycle?
It depends on your protocol. For a typical stimulation cycle using Gonal-F, Orgalutran, and Ovidrel, patients can save $200–$400 or more compared to other international sources – and significantly more compared to US retail pharmacy pricing.
Is it legal to import IVF medications from an international source?
Yes. US patients have the right to import medications for personal, non-commercial use with a valid prescription. Fast IVF requires a prescription for all orders. See our FAQ & Policies page for full details.
