What’s the typical price range for clobetasol propionate?
Clobetasol propionate pricing depends on the exact product (cream vs. ointment vs. solution), strength (commonly 0.05%), and package size. Prices also vary a lot by pharmacy, country, and whether you have insurance or a discount card.
How much does a clobetasol 0.05% tube usually cost?
For clobetasol propionate 0.05% (most common), you should expect pricing to vary by formulation:
- Creams and ointments often cost differently even at the same strength.
- Solutions (where available) can cost more than topical creams/ointments.
- Larger tube sizes and multi-pack options typically increase the total cost but may reduce the per-gram price.
What affects the price the most?
The biggest drivers are:
- Exact dosage form (cream, ointment, lotion/solution)
- Strength (for topical clobetasol, 0.05% is the most common)
- Quantity (tube size or bottle size)
- Brand vs generic availability
- Your location and pharmacy pricing structure
Brand name vs generic: does it change cost?
Most clobetasol propionate is available as generic, and generic typically costs less than branded versions. If you tell me the brand name on your label (or the NDC), I can help you narrow down what buyers typically pay for that specific item.
Can you check the price for a specific product?

- Brand name (if any) or NDC
