Sold in the US as Tri-Luma. It is the one compound in our Pharmacy vertical a discount coupon barely touches.

Why this gap holds. Tri-Luma is brand-only in the US — there is no generic for a coupon to work against. Every other compound here has one, which is why their gaps collapse and this one doesn't.
We could headline 27× by quoting retail. We don't, because GoodRx is free and takes thirty seconds.
