Thoughts on new California law that paves way for California to make its own insulin, generic drugs in effort to lower costs.

>California could make its own insulin and other prescription drugs in an effort to lower costs under a bill Gov. Gavin Newsom announced he signed into law Monday.
>
>Newsom first proposed that California create its own prescription drug label in his January budget proposal. The legislation Newsom signed, Senate Bill 852, attempts to implement that plan by directing California’s Health and Human Services Agency to explore partnerships with drug manufacturers that could make drugs more affordable and accessible.
>
>California wouldn’t develop new drugs under the law, but would instead try to make cheaper versions of generic drugs, or drugs that are no longer protected by patents.
>
>The agency will have to explore whether such an arrangement would be legal and cost effective. The law specifies that any arrangements include production of at least one form of insulin, which about 7.4 million Americans with diabetes take to regulate blood sugar.
>
>Drug market experts say insulin is a particularly difficult drug to manufacture, but if California finds a way to make its own, it could reap significant savings. Between 2002 and 2013, insulin’s list price nearly tripled, prompting some diabetes patients to ration the life-saving drug.
>
>β€œCalifornia is using our market power and our moral power to demand fairer prices for prescription drugs,” Newsom wrote in a statement. β€œI am proud to sign this legislation affirming our ground-breaking leadership in breaking down market barriers to affordable prescription drugs.”
>
>Despite the potential for savings, it’s unknown how much it might actually cost for California to manufacture its own insulin and other drugs, according to an analysis by the Assembly Appropriations committee. In January, the Legislature’s financial analyst pointed to the plan as one part of the governor’s budget proposal where lawmakers should proceed with

All of a sudden they are charging me more for my generic drugs?

I have CareFirst with Caremark. I picked up six prescription drugs today at CVS. All prescriptions are generic tier 1 drugs. According to my plan- all generic drugs are 10 dollars - with absolutely no mention of deducible. I paid 3-5 times more for stuff I paid 10 dollars for last month and even a week ago. For example: Devenlafaxine succnt ER - 25mg - paid 36.30 filled 27DEC Devenlafaxine succnt ER - 100mg - paid 10 filled 20DEC. I called and Caremark claims I was charged more (it was 4 prescriptions in total) because I didn’t meet my deductible. But according to my plan and all the other times I paid, the generic drugs don’t have to be part of the deductible. I am dying on this hill. Please let me know I am not crazy.

Generic vs. name brand drugs

From what I’ve found the biggest difference is the buffers that I think control the drug’s delivery. I’ve taken both the name brand and generics for a couple drugs and both times they had different effects psychologically.

How do the β€œpassive” chemicals in a drug impact its function in the body? Is it a question of pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, or both? Is it partially a placebo effect because you know the name brand is more expensive?

Is there a bigger difference between generic vs. name brand for non-psychoactive vs. psychoactive drugs?

I’m really curious let me know what y’all think

Is there a generic ADHD drug if you cannot swallow pills?

My son recently started on extended release methylphenidate liquid, but after 2 months our insurance decided they were charging us too little and now it's going to be about $100 per month. After talking with insurance, it seems that only tablets will be cheaper. I haven't tried, but I'm worried my son won't be able to swallow the tablets.


Does anyone know if any of the extended release versions of methylphenidate can be crushed or if there are capsules that can be opened? I don't want to interfere with the extended release, so I doubt it.....

Any other suggestions? I need a drug with these qualities:

-extended release, lasts at least 8 hours -doesn't have to be swallowed whole -has a generic version in the USA -comes in low kids dosage


This is my last hope before I just have to rely on forcing him to learn to swallow pills.....
