How Widely Gemcitabine Is Used (Medicaid Data)

A general measure of how commonly Gemcitabine is prescribed, based on Medicaid — one of the largest public drug programs. The figure below is prescriptions filled in Q1–Q4 2025, summed across every form and brand of the drug.

Think of this as a proxy for how widely Gemcitabine is used, drawn from freely available public data. Medicaid is just one program — these numbers don’t include Medicare, other government coverage, or commercial and cash-pay prescriptions, so real-world use is higher than what’s shown here.

How commonly is Gemcitabine prescribed? Of the 1,601 medications we measure, Gemcitabine ranks #799 by Medicaid prescriptions — more than 50% of them.

A general popularity signal; it excludes Medicare, commercial insurance and cash prescriptions, so it is not total U.S. use. Based on the 32 of 74 listed Gemcitabine NDCs with Medicaid activity.
