Apparently the drugs that have showed so much promise are already on the market. They are used to treat osteoporosis. Why not just start prescribing them for asthma?
THis crap happens all the time. They’ll be a drug that has been on the market for years. Cheap. Find out it’s good to treat something else. Rename it. Patent it as a treatment for XXXX. And then it goes from $2 a pill to $200 a dose.
cancer drugs have gone from around $200 or less per year back in the 60’s to now over $70,000 per year
