    Secretary Alex Azar Retweeted Donald J. Trump

    Those who increased prices will be remembered for creating a tipping point in US drug pricing policy. The President’s noticed, I’ve noticed, and more importantly, the American people noticed. Change is coming to drug pricing, whether painful or not for pharmaceutical companies.https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1016368503723577344 …

    Donald J. TrumpVerified account @realDonaldTrump
    Pfizer & others should be ashamed that they have raised drug prices for no reason. They are merely taking advantage of the poor & others unable to defend themselves, while at the same time giving bargain basement prices to other countries in Europe & elsewhere. We will respond!

        We will believe it when we see it... “Noticing” is not enough @SecAzar . Thought by now you would be all over this one with your prior reign and tenure in Pharma with Eli Lilly. Special Conflicts of Interest or Lives of American People?—CHOOSE.

        We saw what Azar did at Lilly. I want to know why. Patients are rationing their insulin. Some will die.

        This is not all on @PhRMA. Much of the blame lies at the doorsteps of the big 3 #pbms. If you want to bring down prices, look no further than @CVSHealth @ExpressScripts and @OptumRx #truthrx #truthrxillinois #behindtherxcurtain

        What should happen: constraining the monopolies that drive excessive pricing, including by 1) compulsory licensing (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/20/opinion/prescription-drug-costs-naloxone-opioids.html …) and 2) exploring alternate models to fund R&D, so high prices enabled by patents do not serve as incentive for developing new drugs. (2/2)

        You have so much potential to make a difference—especially with insulin prices, @SecAzar. Why aren’t you doing more? Maybe you and your friends at Eli Lilly should start making donations to GoFundMe accounts of Americans with diabetes who can’t afford their insulin!

        What will (likely) happen: drug companies blame everyone else but themselves; a few reduce prices as a token gesture; and Trump Administration claims victory, with cosmetic reforms. (1/2)

        The NIH wants to grant a new exclusive license on a older re-purposed drug, probably with zero conditions on pricing, to some firm in the business of "holding patents." I'm sure that will end well.https://www.keionline.org/28353

        You guys don't even know where all the kidnapped migrant children are, we're must certainly not going to trust you on holding pharmaceutical companies accountable.
