This is like complaining about the high cost of Gucci bags!
um.... HELLO there are CHEAPER generic alternatives!
GROW A BRAIN YOU MAGGOTS!
Looks like Mylan Pharmaceuticals didn’t hire Hillary to make a speech or make a donation to her foundation.
No doubt.
it is blatantly illegal under 15 USC, with a ten year per count felony prison term, to attempt to monopolize, restrain trade or price-fix. Therefore it is only because of the explicit, intentional and outrageous conduct of your own government that you are getting raped like this on a literal daily basis, and this issue, as I’ve repeatedly pointed out is not limited to EpiPens — in fact, Mylan has raised prices on dozens of off-patent, generic medications by about the same 500% in the last few years and the only reason they get away with any of it is the above use of government force.

People do these things anymore because they can. There is never any punishment for wrong doing, particularly if you are a democrat.
Selfishness and pure greed rule the country.
Consequences for actions are needed.
Bah. Name brand versus generic. Pharmacist quoted me outrageous price with name brand, IIRC north of $300. Got the generic for less than $20 each.
I am seeing $650 ish prices on goodrx.com
This is crazy. It is nothing more than a dose of Epinephrine.
If I recall this is less than $5 for a vial.
Even generic auto injectors are $350 for two.
Other problem with these is the govt law require destruction when the med gets to a certain short age and replacement at the same outrageous prices.
Out of control situation.
Im shocked that CNN and ABC News have published a story that is negative about their precious Democrats..also EpiPen has donated lots of money to guess who..the CLINTON FOUNDATION..bet the media wont be reporting on that little tidbit
“If you like your Epi-Pen, you can keep your Epi-Pen”
you just can’t afford it.
In 2007, Mylan secured rights to the nearly fifty year old EpiPen, used to treat anaphylaxis (severe allergic reactions).[29] Bresch advocated for broader availability of EpiPens in public places and helped pass the School Access to Emergency Epinephrine Act which made epinephrine more accessible in schools.[17][30] Between 2009 and May 2016, under Bresch's tenure as Mylan president, Mylan raised the price of a set of pens by nearly 500 %, from $103.50 to $608.61.[29] Proxy filings show that from 2007 to 2015, Bresch's compensation went from $2,453,456 to $18,931,068, a 671 percent increase. During the same period, EpiPen prices went from $56.64 to $317.82, a 461 percent increase, according to data provided by Connecture.[31]
Bresch, then-Gov. Joe Manchin’s daughter, got a phony degree from WVU. In the hubbub, the president, provost and a dean were forced to resign.

Democrat eats Democrat....but just wait....somewhere it will be Trump’s fault....or maybe Bush’s!!
That’s Capitalism.
Haha not only that but various states have passed laws requiring schools to have these epipens stocked in every school so make them mandatory so have government buying them by the millions and then jack up the cost 500% as well.. It’s the classic scam
