"A daily dose of 12 pills used to cost about $20, Cassidy said. Now, even with the higher cost per pill, a typical daily dose of one pill costs about $8.50, and a daily dose of two pills about $17. "It's well below what most protease inhibitors are priced at; it's the lowest-priced protease inhibitor, even with the price increase."

Ok, so buried deep in the article, the truth comes out: because of the way the drug is now administered, the daily dose has gone down from 12 pills to one or two, and a typical patient is now paying $3-12 LESS per day for the drug than before, despite the price increase.
