Tetanus shot at Costco: 2026 cost, insurance, and how to schedule

Costco Pharmacy publishes a Boostrix Tdap price near $53 to $60, putting it at or near the lowest cash Tdap among major US chains. Vaccines are typically available to non-members at Costco pharmacies in many US states under federal pharmacy access rules; the specifics vary by state and store. Costco does not accept GoodRx coupons but its cash price is often already below GoodRx.

Scheduling and walk-in

Costco Pharmacy supports walk-in vaccinations and online scheduling through the Costco website. The pharmacy operates within the warehouse but does not require a member entry pass to access in most states. Non-member patients should call the local store before going to confirm walk-in vaccine availability.

Insurance accepted

Costco Pharmacy bills most major insurers in-network and processes Medicare Part D claims at the counter. Many Costco patients use the Costco Member Prescription Program for cash Tdap when uninsured. The most common outcome for insured adults: $0 copay through the standard ACA preventive-care pathway.

Coupon stacking

Costco pricing for Tdap is already set at the chain's published cash level, which is often competitive with discount-card coupons. GoodRx and SingleCare coupon support varies at warehouse-club pharmacies; verify with the local store before relying on it.[2]

Membership and access

Costco pharmacy services, including vaccinations, are typically available to non-members in many US states under federal pharmacy access rules. The specifics vary by state and individual store. Calling the local pharmacy is the most reliable way to confirm.

What this pharmacy does well

  • Lowest cash Tdap among major US chains in most states
  • Pharmacy services open to non-members in many states (federal access rules)
  • Costco Member Prescription Program produces a transparent cash price
  • Generally short queues at the pharmacy counter

What to consider before choosing

  • Vaccinations only available at locations with a Costco Pharmacy (not every warehouse has one)
  • Non-member access varies by state; calling ahead is sensible
  • GoodRx coupons not accepted, though the cash price is often below GoodRx already
  • Limited evening and Sunday hours at some warehouses
