The spread
0.42× – 0.44× estimated
Medicare paid between 0.42× and 0.44× what pharmacies pay, depending on the NDC.
Part D averages every strength and form sold under “Naftifine HCl” into one figure, so it is not specific to this NDC.

What to ask at the counter
None of these figures is your price: what you pay depends on your pharmacy, your insurance, coupons and discounts.
- What is your cash price for 1 g? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
- Which NDC (the 11-digit number on the package) is this? Pharmacies pay $8.5652 to $8.9536 per GM for this product, depending on the NDC.
- How much is in the package I am getting? This page uses 1 g; your package may hold a different amount.
- If you have Medicare Part D: what is my plan’s copay or coinsurance for it? The Part D average on this page is not what you pay.
- These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
Questions
- Why is the comparison with Medicare for NAFTIFINE HCL 2% GEL labelled estimated?
- Beyond what the card shows, the records give these reasons: The Part D figure covers 2024-01-01 to 2024-12-31; the NADAC price is from the file of 2026-10-14. Part D spending basis, as the Part D record states it: Part D 2024 average spend per dosage unit for Naftifine HCl / Naftifine HCl: all makers, strengths, forms and routes combined, claim-weighted; gross cost incl. dispensing fees and patient pay, before rebates. Unit taken as NADAC's GM. Joined on generic name.
- Why does this page start at 1 g?
- The FDA package descriptions of this product’s NDCs give different amounts (45 g, 60 g). So the card starts at 1 GM; change it to match your prescription.
