Big pharma is just out of control. They know that battling cancer is a last grasp for life, and just how desperate people are once they are caught up in it.
In a similar instance ......most skin problems are "vanity" ,and vanity is very important to primarily women. {that is not meant as a sexist remark} only an observation over years of living.
Psoriasis medication Enstillar, 2oz aerosol spray...$908.00,....Look up the cost of Internal med Humaria....That stuff averages $12-13,000 P/yer & can be twice that depending on ins, or no ins.
Now it is used also for spine problems in some cases..[ ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease, idiopathic arthritis ] & so on. So what they are basically telling us is this....
Ladies, if clear skin is important to you so you look nice in that summer dress ?....pony-up $12-30 thousand dollars.
p/year.....and if you have someone in your life....that cannot walk without severe pain.....double it.
Yes the prices are all over the map [as they say] depending on insurance plans , or if a person even has insurance.
Point is....it's out of control.....and WE are paying the price, in money,...suffering,...and sometimes death.
Do I have any answers ? Sadly no....
Sorry for the rant.......
