                        Re:  DUSA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the "Company")
                             Registration Statement - Form S-3

Gentlemen:

        We have examined the Company's registration statement on Form S-3
pursuant to Rule 462(b) of Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") (the
"462(b) Registration Statement") which is being filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the registration of up to
1,630 shares of the Company's common stock, without par value (the "Common
Stock").

        We have also examined copies of (i) the Registration Statement on Form
S-3 (Registration No. 333-73039) as filed with the SEC on February 26, 1999,
under the Act; (ii) Amendment No. 1, filed on April 19, 1999, Amendment No. 2,
filed on May 21, 1999, and Amendment No. 3, filed on June 18, 1999 (the
Registration Statement as so amended collectively known as the "Registration
Statement"); (iii) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, and all
amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation filed by the Company in the
Office of the Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey; (iv) the By-laws
of the Company; (v) the form of warrant agreement between the Company and the
selling shareholders with respect to Common Stock being offered pursuant to the
Registration Statement; and (vi) such records of corporate proceedings and
other documents as we have deemed necessary in order to enable us to express
the opinion set forth below. In our examination, we have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to
us as originals and the conformity with the original of all documents submitted
to us as copies thereof. Where factual matters relevant to such opinion were
not independently established,


<PAGE>   2

Page 2

we have relied upon certificates of officers and responsible employees and
agents of the Company. Our opinion set forth below is limited to the Business
Corporation Law of the State of New Jersey.

        Based on the foregoing examination, it is our opinion that the 1,630
shares of Common Stock underlying the placement agent warrants, if duly
converted in accordance with the terms and conditions of such warrants against
payment to the Company, will be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and
non-assessable.

        We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the
462(b) Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to our firm's
name under the heading "Legal Matters" in the Registration Statement, which is
incorporated by reference into the 462(b) Registration Statement.

                                                  Very truly yours,
