Tazarotene (Avage, Tazorac) is an expensive drug applied to the skin to treat facial wrinkles or certain types of dark or light colored spots on the face. This drug is less popular than comparable drugs. It is available in generic and brand versions. It is covered by most Medicare and insurance plans, but manufacturer and pharmacy coupons can help offset the cost.
