Where Legal Theater and Medical Theater Meet


Novartis tries to make UK hospitals use $1000 drug
Drug maker Novartis is taking legal action in Britain to make state-run hospitals use an eye drug that costs about 700 pounds ($1,130) per shot instead of a cheaper one that costs 60 pounds ($97).
Patient Safety.   Unlicensed Products.  Off Label Usage.  Blah Blah Blah.

Neither one of those drugs actually addresses the cause of Macular Degeneration.
And they know it.
