The short version

Only one company currently supplies this market — there is no backup if it stumbles. The price has jumped 102% in a year, to $31.66 per gram — sharp rises like this often mean supply is already tightening. Historically, drugs in this position went on to a new shortage within 90 days about 0.3% of the time — roughly 2× the typical drug (0.1%).

Same drug class

Other molecules FDA puts in Retinoid, with whether each is in shortage right now. Same class is not the same drug — substitution is a clinical decision, and this is a supply picture, not a recommendation.

Common questions

Is Tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide in shortage right now?
No. FDA does not currently list Tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide in shortage. This page is rebuilt every morning from FDA's shortage database, so a new posting appears here the day it is published.
Who makes Tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide?
1 company has marketed Tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide in the last 30 days, according to the FDA NDC Directory. That is a thin market — if one stops making it, supply is at risk quickly. Every manufacturer and package is listed on this page.
What does Tretinoin and benzoyl peroxide cost?
The typical pharmacy pays about $31.66 per gram, based on the most recent CMS NADAC survey of actual acquisition costs. That is what the pharmacy pays for the drug itself — not the cash price, and not what an insurer is billed.
