Would you like to see the cost of prescription medications cut by 40-85%?

It’s coming and it’s coming via something new called “TrumpRx”.

You gotta love it:

The NY Post had more details here:

President Trump announced the launch of a new website Tuesday giving Americans the chance to buy drugs directly from the government rather than going through insurance.

Trump, 79, also announced that Pfizer plans to lower its prices on some medications distributed in the US, predicting Americans will save “hundreds of millions of dollars a year.”

“I think it’s one of the biggest things that we’ll do. We’ll be reducing drug prices by 100% in some cases, 300% or more,” Trump told reporters on the South Lawn of the White House ahead of the announcement.

“Pfizer is committing to offer all of their prescription medications to Medicaid, and it will be at the most favored nation’s prices,” the president said moments later in the Oval Office. “It’s going to have a huge impact on bringing Medicaid costs down like nothing else.”

Most favored nation (MFN) prices are calculated by taking net consumer prices and comparing them against her wealthy countries.

The price then gets negotiated with the US market in mind.

Pfizer also agreed to provide some of their popular medications at discounted rates of between 50 and 100%, and all new medications announced will be offered at the most favored nation rate to the US, Trump said.

Among the medications available on TrumpRx at the reduced rate are Xeljanz for rheumatoid arthritis (40% discount), Zavzpret for migranes (50%), Eucrisa for dermatitis (80%), and Duavee for female osteoporosis (85%).

I don’t love the association with Albert Bourla, but I suspect this is likely a case of “keep your enemies closer”:

Here is the full Fact Sheet direct from the WhiteHouse.gov:

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Announces First Deal to Bring Most-Favored-Nation Pricing to American Patients

ADVANCING MOST-FAVORED-NATION PRICING: Today, President Donald J. Trump announced the first agreement with a major pharmaceutical company, Pfizer, to bring American drug prices in line with the lowest paid by other developed nations (known as the most-favored-nation, or MFN, price).

  • The agreement will provide every State Medicaid program in the country access to MFN drug prices on Pfizer products, resulting in many millions of dollars in savings and continuing President Trump’s historic efforts to strengthen the program for the most vulnerable.
  • The agreement ensures foreign nations can no longer use price controls to freeride on American innovation by guaranteeing MFN prices on all new innovative medicines Pfizer brings to market.
  • The agreement requires Pfizer to repatriate increased foreign revenue on existing products that Pfizer realizes as a result of the President’s strong America First U.S. trade policies for the benefit of American patients.
  • The agreement requires Pfizer to offer medicines at a deep discount off the list price when selling directly to American patients.

DELIVERING REDUCED COSTS: Today’s actions will result in tangible cost savings to American patients and the healthcare system as a whole. Taken together, more than 100 million patients are impacted by the diseases Pfizer’s medicines treat, and many of those will benefit from the President’s successful negotiation of lower prices for Americans. Examples include:

  • Eucrisa, a topical ointment for atopic dermatitis, will be made available at an 80% discount to patients purchasing directly.
  • Xeljanz, a widely used oral medication for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis, will be available at a 40% discount to patients purchasing directly.
  •  Zavzpret, a commonly utilized treatment for migraines, will be sold directly to patients at a 50% discount.

ENDING GLOBAL FREELOADING ON AMERICAN PHARMACEUTICAL INNOVATION:  President Trump is taking decisive action to rebalance a system that allows pharmaceutical manufacturers to offer low prices to other wealthy nations while charging Americans significantly higher prices.

  • According to recent data, the prices Americans pay for brand-name drugs are more than three times the price other Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development nations pay, even after accounting for discounts manufacturers provide in the U.S.
  • The United States has less than five percent of the world’s population, yet roughly 75% of global pharmaceutical profits come from American taxpayers.
  • Drug manufacturers benefit from generous research subsidies and enormous healthcare spending by the U.S. Government. Instead of passing that benefit through to American consumers, drug manufacturers then discount their products abroad to gain access to foreign markets and subsidize those discounts through high prices charged in America. Americans are subsidizing drug-manufacturer profits and foreign health systems, both in development and once the drugs are sold.

DELIVERING ON PROMISES TO PUT AMERICAN PATIENTS FIRST: President Trump is delivering on promises for American patients that the political establishment did not believe were possible.

  • On May 12, 2025, President Trump signed an Executive Order titled: “Delivering Most-Favored-Nation Prescription Drug Pricing to American Patients” directing the Administration to take numerous actions to bring American drug prices in line with those paid by similar nations.
  • On July 31, 2025, President Trump sent letters to leading pharmaceutical manufacturers outlining the steps they must take to bring down the prices of prescription drugs in the United States to match the lowest price offered in other developed nations
  • President Trump has been relentless in his effort to address the unfair and outrageous prices Americans pay for prescription drugs:
    • President Trump: “In case after case, our citizens pay massively higher prices than other nations pay for the same exact pill, from the same factory, effectively subsidizing socialism aboard [abroad] with skyrocketing prices at home. So we would spend tremendous amounts of money in order to provide inexpensive drugs to another country. And when I say the price is different, you can see some examples where the price is beyond anything — four times, five times different.”
