@buck12 Welcome to Mayo Connect - and welcome to prescription medication sticker shock!
Here are a couple of options for you - GoodRx has coupons for this medication. In my town, with the GoodRx coupon, I can get a 30 day supply for under $30 at WalMart, HyVee and Costco.
The second is to have the pharmacist check to be sure the doctor has allowed for generic or other brand substitution. If it is not either checked off or stated on the prescription, the Rx must be filled with the exact specified med. GoodRx coupons sometimes work on one brand, but not another.
Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a generic on the market yet.

@sueinmn I also have an itchy scalp. I went to the dermatologist and she asked me if I had arthritis! I said yes I do! She said well that’s why and told me to try over the counter Scalpacin. That was no help whatsoever!
I’m sorry @sueimmn, I sent this to the wrong person!

Sue--Thank you so much! I will check on GoodRx - what a great recommendation--and solution to the high cost. I appreciate the welcome and your valuable input.
