    Everybody watches TV ads for prescription drugs & knows how much info the drug companies have to include. Why not have them disclose prices in the ads, too? @US_FDA will look into this immediately.

        Price? - Competitive net price offered in international markets with net price transparency, free parallel trade and price arbitrage? - Low net price actually paid by US payers? - Inflated list price forced upon US patients via opaque dual pricing?https://www.t1df.org/news/2017/12/15/t1df-letter-to-us-senate-cost-sharing-crisis …

        Why not cancel the advertising instead? Let the Doctors earn their incomes

        How would companies decide which price to advertise?

        When I was in pharmacy school, in the '80s, it was illegal to advertise prescription drugs. Maybe we should go back to that? Of course, the internet has plenty of drug information now.

        All pricing should be published for all medical purposes. No more phony co-pay (cost shifted) assist programs.

        Is there a price? Aren’t they all negotiated? A price for this payer and another price for that hospital?

        Eliminate rebates. Entirely. Limit discounts to 10%. This will force lower List Prices- lower for EVERYONE. Allow competition from re-imported drugs. This will shut down all the money games.
