My insurance did this for my kid’s eczema. Except the $5 one was an immune suppressant. For my toddler. For eczema. During a pandemic.

The only sane response to that is “okay, I won’t give my kid either of those; we’ll just stick with OTC lotions”. Which is exactly what they intended.

A topical steroid I assume? Sure it’s an immune suppressant, since eczema is an immune condition. Topical steroids are standard of care.
