President Trump's plan to impose tariffs on pharmaceuticals could raise medication prices by 50 to 200 percent, putting essential treatments out of reach for many Americans. The article highlights that with a monthly supply of certain medications costing as much as $24,000, the proposed tariffs will worsen drug shortages, especially critical antibiotics. As manufacturers face rising production costs due to tariffs, the ability to produce medications domestically is hampered, exacerbating the already dire situation of drug availability in the U.S. Many patients may find their prescriptions unaffordable or unavailable altogether.
President Trump's tariffs on pharmaceuticals could drastically increase medication costs for millions of Americans, jeopardizing access to essential treatments for chronic health conditions.
