Republican Administration Maintains Exclusivity Stance in GLP-1 (Tirzepatide) Compounding Dispute

[StopCraving_12]

"With the recent transition to the Trump administration—whose leader has repeatedly criticized pharmaceutical companies for "getting away with murder" on pricing and specifically targeted the cost of weight loss medications—I have wondered whether the FDA might reverse course under new leadership and side with compounders offering lower-priced alternatives.

That’s right, they own the patents and charge usurious rates for the meds to US patients. That’s why I can’t understand why anyone thought they’d (companies or admin) would be sympathetic to US patients, esp given they’re champions of citizen united.

I give it 2 hours but prove me wrong.

An article with the words "Republican administration" in the title possibly getting into partisan politics? I can't imagine what you mean.
