Metamucil: price per serving
This site tracks 8 listings from Metamucil across 1 category: Fiber & regularity. Every price below is normalized to cost per serving so packages of different sizes can be compared directly.
Metamucil is the best known psyllium husk brand in the United States, and psyllium is the fiber with the strongest clinical evidence base of the common regularity options. This site tracks its listings in the fiber and regularity category.
Psyllium is sold as loose powder, capsules, and gummies, and the format changes the per-serving cost substantially. A capsule serving is frequently several capsules rather than one, which is the single most common reason a package that looks cheap is not. The table below does that arithmetic for every listing tracked.

What this page does not tell you
- Nothing about product quality. Price per serving is a cost normalization. This site does not test products, assess ingredient quality, or verify manufacturing claims.
- Nothing about whether a supplement is appropriate for you. That is a conversation for your prescriber, particularly if you take other medications.
- Nothing about products sold outside Amazon. The catalog covers Amazon listings only, so a brand may sell products that never appear here.
How these numbers are calculated is documented in full on the methodology page.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Metamucil cheaper as powder or capsules?
- It depends on the specific listing, which is why this page ranks by price per serving rather than package price. Capsule servings are often several capsules, so a bottle that looks inexpensive can cost more per serving than a tub of loose powder.
- How does Metamucil compare to store-brand psyllium?
- On cost per serving, the comparison table on this page shows the cheapest current alternative in the fiber category regardless of brand. On formulation, this site does not test products and cannot tell you whether they are equivalent.
