Brief Answer:
several choices

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
The topical steroids betamethasone dipropionate, desoximetasone, and triamcinolone acetonide are all available as generics. Most of these would be available under medicare part D. However, there are many Medicare part D programs so you would have to check the formulary for your particular part D pharmacy to determine what other steroid cream will be covered.
Let me know if you have further questions,
