Medicare
We don’t know yet
No Medicare reference price. Part D: OpenBill did not match this NDC to a usable Medicare Part D spending row. Either Part D has none for it, or the rows that share its name could not safely be tied to it (for example, they mix units, routes or release forms, or the drug is sold over the counter, which Part D does not cover). Part B: This NDC is not in the current quarter’s Medicare Part B NDC-HCPCS crosswalk, so it has no Part B payment limit.
The spread
We don’t know yet
There is no Medicare figure to compare with, so there is no spread.
Cost-plus estimate
$75.06 estimated
$60.92 + $9.14 (15%) + $5.00 fee per fill = $75.06

What it is
TESTOSTERONE 1% (50 MG/5 G) PK is how the CMS NADAC file names this product. The FDA NDC Directory lists it as “testosterone” and “testosterone gel, 1%”, as its NDCs’ listings variously write the nonproprietary name.
FDA gives its dosage form as gel and its route as “topical” and “transdermal”.
FDA lists 4 labelers (the companies named on the label) for its NDCs, among them Actavis Pharma, Inc., Encube Ethicals, Inc. and Strides Pharma Science Limited.
FDA’s Established Pharmacologic Class for it is Androgen.
The NADAC file of 2026-10-14 prices it under 4 NDCs (National Drug Codes).
NADAC classes it as a generic drug (rate-setting class G), and does not mark it as sold over the counter.
What pharmacies pay
Pharmacies pay $60.92 for 150 g (150 × $0.40611 per GM, rounded to the cent), by the CMS NADAC file of 2026-10-14; that price took effect on 2026-09-23. That is what pharmacies pay their suppliers, not what they charge you.
NADAC’s explanation codes for it: 1, calculated from the most recently completed pharmacy survey; 5, calculated based on package size; 6, the CMS Covered Outpatient Drug Product File S/I/N drug category was not applied when grouping drugs for the calculation.

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 150 g? Is it lower than what I would pay through my insurance?
- How much is in the package I am getting? This page uses 150 g; your package may hold a different amount.
- These are questions about price, not medical advice. Do not change or stop a medicine without talking to your prescriber or pharmacist.
Questions
- Why does this page start at 150 g?
- NADAC prices this product per GM. The FDA NDC Directory’s package description gives 150 g in one package for all 4 NDCs of this product (“30 PACKET in 1 CARTON (0591-3217-30) / 5 g in 1 PACKET (0591-3217-26)”), so the card starts at one package: 150 GM. Change it to match your prescription.
