In their new #Crossroads article, @jeromie_b, @MichelleM_Mello, @MarissaReitsma, @SoyeonKang_PhD, @Angela_HSR, @jlevy2, @dr_msocal, Antonio Trujillo, and Gerard Anderson of @JohnsHopkinsSPH, @Stanford, and @Georgetown discuss how, for many ideas in President Trump’s two executive orders on prescription drug pricing, a large evidence base can assist federal officials in translating promising broad ideas into specific policies that are likely to deliver cost savings to US patients and programs. healthaffairs.org/content/fo…

Canada seems about to get generics for Ozempic (semaglutide), possibly as soon as January 2026. This is in stark contrast to the US, where generics will have to wait until at least 2032. What is the difference ? (1/5)

Should we have the same system as Canada ? Not necessarily, but this is an important lesson that our drug patent system must be revisited. - there are a few bills introduced in Congress to change this system , and they should receive more of our attention. (4/5)
