How much does Opzelura (ruxolitinib) 1.5% cream cost?
Cost can vary a lot based on the pharmacy, location, insurance coverage, and whether you’re paying cash or using a manufacturer discount. To find the most relevant price, check the exact NDC at your pharmacy and compare cash price vs. insurance copay.
What is the “1.5%” Opzelura strength and what does it come in?
Opzelura is sold as ruxolitinib cream, 1.5%. Pricing is typically quoted per tube size (the amount you get matters), so the “cost” depends on which package your pharmacy carries.
