Learn how to save on Nystatin/Triamcinolone in 2026. Compare cash prices, discount cards, and patient assistance programs to pay less at the pharmacy.
Nystatin/Triamcinolone is a prescription cream used to treat fungal skin infections with inflammation. The good news? It's available as a generic, which makes it one of the more affordable topical prescriptions. But "affordable" is relative — without insurance, you could still pay $15 to $80 depending on the tube size and pharmacy.
In this guide, we'll break down exactly what Nystatin/Triamcinolone costs in 2026, and show you every way to bring that price down — from free discount cards to patient assistance programs.
Nystatin/Triamcinolone is only available as a generic (the original brand Mycolog-II has been discontinued). Here's what you can expect to pay at the cash price — meaning no insurance and no discount card:
Prices vary significantly between pharmacies. Walmart and Costco tend to have lower cash prices for generics, while CVS and Walgreens may charge more. The cream and ointment formulations are usually priced similarly.
The bottom line: even without insurance, Nystatin/Triamcinolone is generally under $50 for a standard 30g tube. But you can almost always do better with a discount card.
Prescription discount cards are free to use and can dramatically reduce what you pay at the pharmacy — sometimes below your insurance copay. Here are the best options for Nystatin/Triamcinolone:
GoodRx is the most widely used prescription discount platform. For Nystatin/Triamcinolone:
SingleCare often has prices competitive with or lower than GoodRx:
RxSaver compares prices across multiple discount programs:
Pro tip: Always compare prices across 2–3 discount cards before filling. Prices can vary by $5–$15 between platforms for the same medication at the same pharmacy.
Most insurance plans cover Nystatin/Triamcinolone as a Tier 1 or Tier 2 generic, which typically means a copay of $0–$15. Prior authorization is rarely required.
Here's when a discount card might still beat your insurance:
You can use a discount card instead of insurance at the pharmacy counter — just let the pharmacist know you'd like to use the discount card price. Note that paying cash or using a discount card won't count toward your insurance deductible.
Since Nystatin/Triamcinolone is a generic-only medication with no active brand, there is no manufacturer-specific patient assistance program or savings card. However, if you're struggling to afford your medications, these general programs can help:
NeedyMeds (needymeds.org) is a nonprofit that maintains a database of patient assistance programs, discount cards, and other resources for people who can't afford their medications.
RxAssist (rxassist.org) helps patients find assistance programs based on their specific medications and financial situation.
If you qualify for Medicaid, Nystatin/Triamcinolone is covered in all state programs, usually with no copay or a very small copay ($1–$3).
Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) often have their own pharmacies or can connect you with discounted medication programs. They serve patients regardless of ability to pay.
If you use Nystatin/Triamcinolone regularly, ask your doctor to prescribe the 60g tube instead of the 30g. The per-gram cost is usually lower with larger tubes, and you'll make fewer trips to the pharmacy.
Prices for the same generic medication can vary by $20 or more between pharmacies in the same area. Use Medfinder to compare availability and pricing in your area.
You don't need a Costco membership to use their pharmacy (in most states). Costco consistently offers some of the lowest generic drug prices in the country.
If your insurance offers mail-order pharmacy benefits, you may be able to get a 90-day supply for the cost of a single copay, saving money and trips.
If cost is a concern, ask your doctor whether prescribing Nystatin cream and Triamcinolone cream separately might be cheaper. In some cases, the individual products may cost less than the combination, especially when using discount cards.
Nystatin/Triamcinolone is already one of the more affordable prescription topical medications, but that doesn't mean you should pay more than you need to. With free discount cards like GoodRx and SingleCare, a 30g tube can cost as little as $10–$18 — and most insurance plans cover it for even less.
