Over the counter
You may not need a pharmacy for this at all.
menthol 0.076 MG/MG / methyl salicylate 0.29 MG/MG Topical Ointment is sold over the counter. The prices below are what pharmacies pay to dispense it on a prescription — the same active ingredient is on the shelf at a supermarket, discount store, or dollar store, usually as a store brand, for a small fraction of that. Dollar Tree, Aldi, Walmart and Costco all carry store-brand versions of common OTC medicines.
Check the strength before you switch. Prescribed strengths are often higher than what is sold on a shelf — the shelf box may be a lower dose per tablet, so you would not be taking the same thing at 30 count. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber to confirm the shelf product matches what you were prescribed.
Telepharmacy
In much of the country a pharmacist can verify and counsel remotely while the prescription is filled at a licensed hub. It carries far less overhead than a counter, and where it is available the cash price can undercut one.
We are not showing any yet — we have no verified telepharmacy price to put here, and an indicative one would be worth less than nothing. It is the next source we are adding.
