Cheapest Ways to Get Tretinoin Legally
Here are your best options, roughly from cheapest to more expensive:
Online Telehealth Services
- Curology – Offers custom formulas including tretinoin; around $30-35/month with a free trial period
- Apostrophe – Tretinoin prescriptions starting around $20-25/month including the consultation
- Derrow or Hims/Hers – Competitive pricing, often with promotional offers
Generic Tretinoin with GoodRx
- Get a prescription from your regular doctor or urgent care (often free with insurance)
- Fill it at a pharmacy using GoodRx coupon
- Generic tretinoin cream can be as low as $15-30 for a tube that lasts months
Amazon Clinic / Walmart Health (where available)
- Low-cost consultations that can lead to tretinoin prescriptions
Tips to Save More:
- A little goes a long way – one tube often lasts 3-6 months
- Ask for 0.025% strength (usually cheapest)
- Check Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drugs (costplusdrugs.com) for pharmacy pricing
Bottom Line
GoodRx + a doctor visit or Apostrophe are typically the most affordable routes overall.
