Given the price went up 5x, introducing new ones at half the price still means the “new generic” is 2.5 times more expensive than the branded product before the price hike.

$600 to $300 is still a major profit. Major profit.

Half the price of the jacked-up ones, or three times the price they were a few months ago.

Generic, by definition, is a product from an alternate manufacturer. No reason to allow the word generic to even be used here.
The Games Big Pharma Play

Several politicians had said the Aug. 25 announcement on the enhanced savings card was not enough, given that the EpiPen two-packs have risen markedly since 2007, when a pair cost about $100 compared to the current list price of $609. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn) said: This baby step should be followed by actual robust action.Given that the company can make a profit if they sold a two EpiPen package for $14.95, the company selling them for $600 or even $300 is making an obscene profit.
This is not new technology, it is pure greed and corruption in my opinion.

They are issuing the generic to prevent competition from another company.

I read about a doctor that has his own kit that anyone can make....
get the generic stuff in a bottle, buy a syringe and a very small needle and it all fits into an altoids tin...
instead of the autopen you have to draw the correct amount into the syringe and inject it yourself...
cost, including the altoids, is around 20.00 per shot..
