Do any of you take prescription medications?

It seems like, by executive order, the price caps on prescription medications have been rescinded. How does this benefit anyone but the pharmaceutical companies? I'm open to having someone explain this to me.

Yes, I had mitral valve replacement in 2023, and due to that I have to take a few different pills pertaining to my heart, including a blood thinner which I have to take for the rest of my life.

@Sevendays @HowtoDestroyAngels My wife sees a heart doctor. He would like to put her on Wachovia.

@Musicman is that expensive?

@Sevendays I have to have my blood tested every two to three weeks, depending on how thick or thin my blood is. All they do is prick my finger to check it.

@Sevendays If the insurance won't cover it the cost is $1600 a month. He is running a couple of tests now to justify it to the insurance company.
