could be manufactured for 89 cents to $4.73 for a month’s supply
That compares to the monthly US list price of $968.52 for Ozempic, a weekly injection.
I got semaglutide (Rybelsus, the pill form) prescribed for type 2 diabetes. The list price in Spain for a 30 pill format (a month’s worth) is around 130€ ($140) without discounts. Thanks to the prescription, I get it for free ($0.00)… which turns out to be closer to its actual value. Interesting 🤔
Wonder how much public funding was used toward the research.

This is of course their MO. They were making Insulin for pennies per vial for years and selling it for hundreds of dollars per. It’s funny how they’re allowed to keep doing this to us and they probably always will because the US right thinks the immoral thing is not letting vampires have a suck whenever they want it. Obesity and Diabetes are a couple of the largest killers around, to say nothing of the losses in Quality of Life they cause. It’s just insane that we refuse to regulate prices for drugs that would relieve immeasurable suffering and death because CEOs gotta have a nicer Yacht or how is life any fair?
