"The itching and scaling went away after one day of using this treatment. I am very pleased with this drug. I just hope that my condition doesn't become immune to it, as it did with all the other OTC treatments I've used."

"This is a wonderful medicine. It worked really well on the most stubborn fungal infection I've ever had. I had tried everything on the market, and nothing would work until this. I'm not going to lie, this stuff burns like crazy. You will scream and cry because it burns that bad for about 10 minutes. Stick with it, and you will get rid of the infection. After about the 4th day, it quit burning when I used it - and finally, I got rid of the infection. It's expensive even with insurance, but well worth the cost. They gave me a coupon to use, and it brought the cost down to about $35."

"After four months of thinking I had chronic dry skin on my face, I saw a dermatologist who diagnosed me with seborrheic dermatitis. He gave me a prescription for Xolegel. It is very expensive at over $800/tube, but my insurance brought it down to $100, and then a discount card from the manufacturer brought it down to only $10. In three days, the redness and scaling on my face were gone. I can't imagine not having this medication."

"The symptoms were improved, but not to the extent mentioned by other reviewers of this product. The gel was prescribed for use twice a day, but at the end of each day, had redness, itching, and scaling again."

"I received a Xolegel prescription instead of my usual ketoconazole cream. I went to the local pharmacy and was shown a bill of $595. I laughed at the poor cashier and said, 'No thanks.' Called my dermatologist back and got a cream for $30. There is a program on their website where people can get the drug for only $10 on top of their co-pay if their insurance doesn't cover the drug. What this seems to imply is that if your insurance won't pay, they will give it to you for what it is actually worth. A perfect example of the broken medical system and greed. The price of this drug has gone up over 400% in the last few years. Next time I see an Aqua box at my pharmacy, it will be refused."
