Before obamacare, the med I take for migraines cost $19 a month - now, I pay $280. They are “getting away with murder”

Why are you blaming the drug companies, when it's obvious from your statement that the cause is government.

The actual cost to produce most drugs is so close to zero that it can be ignored in most analyses. The biggest elephant in the room is government? It now takes 2 and a half billion dollars (yes, Billion, with a B) to approve a drug for sale. The vast bulk of that cost is government regulations. You should be blaming Obama, not the company that is providing your relief.

NOT ONE word was said about the HORRID SIDE EFFECT RIDDLED ADDICTIVE DRUGS the FDA has approved. I’ve a side effect drug list a full page long. Lyrica, Neurotin 1 pill will send me to the ER with A-Fib. Much more addictive than NORCO plus all the other side effects no doctor mentions. It’s taken 9 Peripheral Neuropathy drugs to find 1 that I can take for my degenerative spine caused Peripheral Neuropathy.
