Azelaic acid (Finacea) is an expensive drug used on the skin to treat mild to moderate rosacea. This drug is more popular than comparable drugs. It is available in both brand and generic versions. Generic Azelaic acid is covered by most Medicare and insurance plans, but some pharmacy coupons or cash prices may be lower.
