A member asked:
Why is desoximetasone ointment so darn expensive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cost of producing it: The price of medications, including this one, is set by the manufacturer based on costs related to developing, producing, and distributing the medication. Since this is generic, it is also influenced by the number of competing manufacturers in the market, in general, the more competitors, the lower the price.
