There's more to the story, try to keep up. The price of the actual drug, Epinephrine, remains stable. Competition for the auto-injection delivery of epinephrine dissipated in recent months while simultaneously Mylan, the sole company offering this auto-injector lobbied the govt to have schools keep 'their' product on hand at taxpayer expense. The prescribed units costed $57 in 2007 with minor increases in price till 2015 when they suddenly pushed the price to $600 The CEO of Mylan is the daughter of Senator Manchin.

Why mention Manchin?

  Coincidentally, the controversy over the sudden increase in cost for the EpiPen exploded at the same time.

If there was quid pro quo, then the senator and the CEO daughter should both go to jail for 100 years.
