Import and regulatory notes
Directorate General of Drug Administration (DGDA). Bangladesh is the reference market for this price guide: it is a least-developed-country WTO member with a patent exemption for pharmaceuticals until 2033, so local manufacturers legally produce on-patent molecules. Products are registered with the DGDA and carry a Bangladesh MRP; buying at pharmacy level usually means a per-strip or per-box price in BDT.
How to obtain it legally
- Obtain a prescription plus the diagnostic/genetic report from the treating physician (e.g. the target-mutation result).
- Confirm the exact brand and strength, and ask the supplier for the batch number, certificate of analysis (COA) and the manufacturer's GMP credentials.
- Clear the shipment through a DGDA-licensed importer or pharmacy; unregistered products go through the named-patient route.
- Check batch number, expiry and packaging on arrival, then follow the prescriber's monitoring schedule.
What adds to the price when you import
- International freight and cold chain (monoclonal antibodies and insulins need 2–8°C end-to-end).
- Customs duty and import VAT in Bangladesh.
- Compliance, licensing and warehousing cost of the importer/distributor (typically 10–30%).
- Order size and pack configuration — full cases price below retail strips.
- Exchange-rate movement: this page converts at 1 USD = 122.87 BDT.

Frequently asked questions
How much does crizotinib cost in Bangladesh?
There is no fixed public retail price for crizotinib in Bangladesh in the sources we track (most supply is hospital- or named-patient based). Use the Bangladesh list price as the benchmark: BDT 350–BDT 1,500 (US$2.85–US$12.21) per unit, about BDT 350–BDT 1,500 in BDT per unit and BDT 10,500–BDT 45,000 per 30-unit month, before freight, customs duty and distributor margin.
Can I legally import crizotinib into Bangladesh?
Yes, but only through the rules of the Directorate General of Drug Administration (DGDA): Bangladesh is the reference market for this price guide: it is a least-developed-country WTO member with a patent exemption for pharmaceuticals until 2033, so local manufacturers legally produce on-patent molecules. Products are registered with the DGDA and carry a Bangladesh MRP; buying at pharmacy level usually means a per-strip or per-box price in BDT. Prescription medicines must move on a valid prescription through a licensed importer, pharmacy or hospital; personal-use imports need a named-patient / compassionate-use authorisation.
Are Bangladeshi or Indian generics of crizotinib approved in Bangladesh?
We cannot confirm the registration status of every individual generic brand in Bangladesh. Directorate General of Drug Administration (DGDA) is the approving authority, and only products with a local product registration (or a special import authorisation) may be sold routinely. Ask your supplier for the local registration or import permit for the specific brand before you buy.
Why is the Bangladesh price a useful reference?
Bangladesh is a least-developed-country WTO member with a pharmaceutical patent exemption running to 2033, so local manufacturers can legally produce molecules that are still on patent elsewhere — and DGDA-registered list prices are public. That makes it the practical global floor price for on-patent targeted therapy and the benchmark used in import negotiations.
What is the availability situation for crizotinib in Bangladesh?
Bangladesh (regional supply hub): Available. Beacon's export page lists Bangladesh-origin crizotinib as supplied to Nepal, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Myanmar and Cambodia; at least seven domestic crizotinib brands are registered
