President Donald Trump has announced the launch of TrumpRx.gov, a new federal prescription drug platform the White House says will immediately cut the cost of many popular medications by as much as 80 percent for millions of Americans.
The initiative marks one of the most ambitious efforts yet to tackle high out-of-pocket drug costs in the United States and is being hailed by administration officials as a historic victory for patients who have long paid more than those in other developed nations.
“Last night, President Trump delivered on a core promise to the American people — ending the era where Americans pay far more for the same drugs than patients overseas,” the White House said in a statement. “TrumpRx means lower prices at the pharmacy counter, starting now.”
