Under pressure, Mylan announced last week that it would increase the financial assistance it provided to commercially insured patients to help with their out-of-pocket costs. It also said it would broaden the eligibility for uninsured patients to receive free products.'>

They are selling, literally $10 worth of shit for 650 fucking dollars....how about no...how about you can't sell any product for more than 10% over the cheapest price for the same product whether it is sold in Mexico or in the veterinarian supplies.

Time to leverage big pharm like they are little doctors.

Any pharmacy should be able to sell generic equivalent without doctors approval, or any doctor not writing scripts for generic is subject to collusion prosecution.
