That’s good medicine wasn’t expensive enough already in this country.
Alot of generic drugs come from India.
Virtually all chemical compounds used to manufacture all pharmaceuticals in the world come from China and India in massive, massive quantities
Dental silicas do. Some come from the UK. Titanium dioxide from Czech. Sodium saccharine/Saccharine sodium from China.

Found this recently and I’m betting it ties into this somehow: H.R.661 - MIRACLE Medical Technology Act of 2025. https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/661
Introduced in House (01/23/2025)
Maximizing Israel-U.S. Research Advancement and Collaborative Leadership in Emerging Medical Technology Act of 2025 or the MIRACLE Medical Technology Act of 2025
This bill requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement a program for the United States and Israel to collaborate on developing and delivering health care products and services. The program must include coordinated activities in specified areas, including research and development, use of innovative technology, intellectual property protection, regulatory harmonization, disease prevention, and biological product manufacturing. The bill authorizes HHS to establish a joint United States-Israel Health Care Collaboration Center in the United States to leverage existing expertise for advancing the program’s purposes.
Isn’t Ozempic already mad expensive in the US compared to Denmark where it comes from?
Perhaps he thinks Ozempic actually is harvested in Greenland? :-D
Fresh off the ozempic fields.
There’s nothing the markets love more than uncertainty.
Great. Now that I finally got my 100$/mo med that I need.
How do I find out if my meds are made outside of the US?
I mean, if domestic pharmaceuticals raise their prices to match the foreign ones to pocket the profit… does it matter?
My problem is finding my medications. It’d be nice to know where they come from.
This motherfucker is literally gonna kill me by making my already unaffordable cancer meds really insanely unaffordable.
Something like almost half of generic medications are made in India.
Something like almost half of generic medications are made in India.
Is this for cancer drugs or generics in general? Only asking because most of the generics I see in the UK are made here, but that might be because I’ve only seen the more common medications and not stuff like cancer drugs.
Hope you manage to beat the cancer!
India makes a huge amount of drugs. The UK probably just doesn’t import them.
You might not see them made in India on the label since the tablet is assembled in UK but the API (the molecule that actually does the job) and additives might be sourced elsewhere. China and India produce a lot of them. They might also sell precursors later used to make API in UK so there might be always some contribution form India / China etc.
Trump wanted to support the black market pharmaceuticals.
How about going abroad for treatment?
Look, I’ve been worried about being under surveillance for my political views and personal connections since the Bush era (made friends in college with middle eastern exhange students who went back to their home country and kept in touch). Technically (not really) being part of the queer community because I date transwomen (transwomen are women, duh) further complicates the matter. Not looking to be the first white cisman US citizen to be disappeared to El Salvador, thanks.
If I manage to leave the country I better god damn have a plan to not have to come back and to get some form of political asylum elsewhere.
You sound based af dude
Well I’m glad someone out there thinks so. I am pretty self assured that I am on the right side of history, but fuck living in this country beats down your mental health, doesn’t it?
And 85% of medical isotopes come from Canada!
Like a really bad gambler, double downing every hand in blackjack.
Not on topic but that is actually a valid strategy for blackjack. It is the reason that table limits exist. Otherwise doubling down every loss will eventually net you a positive.
For global politics is still next level stupid.
It’s sort of a crazy strategy in Blackjack too. Lose 7-8 times in a row and you’re already betting 100x your starting bet.
If you’ve lost 8 times in a row, you’re actually now betting 256x your original bet.
It’s NOT a good strategy. Statistically it doesn’t by any means whatsoever ensure you’ll end up net positive.
It’s called “Oscar’s Grind” and there is a plethora of mathematics that show it is does not beat the house.
It is called the Martingale system.
Oscars grind works in a completely different fashion, and you do not raise your bet when you lose.
Thank you for this. I knew how the strategy plays but not the name.
It’s actually the strategy with the best return of any strategy, including card counting. In any blackjack strategy you need a large bankroll to take advantage of the law of large numbers.
Seriously, this works so well and is the reason for table limits.
Because you will never find a no limit blackjack table you cannot actually apply this strategy in the real world. But it is mathematically sound.
It’s not sound actually because it trivially ends up in nonsensical amounts of money and any sufficiently long series of rolls will have an increasing chance of having a sufficiently long series of losses such that no reasonable person can possibly recover from it. For instance who that can afford to bet 1024x 100 or $100,000 on a single game of chance is excited by betting $100?
It’s nonsense.
It’s mathematically sound because you do guarantee a net positive with enough of a bankroll. As I have mentioned in other comments here this is not a strategy that can be used in the real world.
You even admit it would work with absurd amounts of money… The math works.
The math doesn’t work because given enough rolls you literally always go bankrupt no matter what bankroll you start with. Take the simplest option a fair coin where you win on tails and lose on heads. Real actual random flips will contains runs of heads. Let N be the number of rolls required to bankrupt you for any value of N. The more you roll the more the probability of such a run increases towards 1.
You could end up bankrupting a billion dollar bank starting with 10 dollar bets. It’s only sound if you have a literally infinite bank. For any finite bank you just have to play longer to lose but you always end up losing.
A valid losing strategy, sure.
But doubling down can only be done during play, not at the start of a hand.
You misunderstood. A person doubles the bet on the next hand after a losing hand. This is different than doubling down on a 9, 10, or 11 during play.
Ahh yes, the “thank God I have infinite money, I literally can’t lose” approach.
We call it the Musky Bezos.
Yeah, martingale
Well if you keep digging, eventually you’ll end up in China on the positive side.
You just have to overflow your casino balance back into the positive
If you can’t win at blackjack, you are doing it wrong.
He’s definitely got double downs syndrome

Oh good, that’s totally going to help drug prices go down, right?
Everywhere else ? Probably
Great. As if the American people weren’t already paying too much for medication. Now, they’re going to be paying more. And Trump is going to blame it on tariffs—that he started.
He’ll be blaming it on the retaliatory tariffs.
His tariffs are the best/perfect, it’s all these unnecessary tariffs these other countries insist on imposing in response that are to blame 🤹♂️

I take a topical for atopic dermatitis that is better tolerated than a topical corticosteroid. And it’s primarily made in India as a generic. Also because topical corticosteroids long term effects are rebound disease and skin atrophy.
As someone who was considering taking a week off work as I would have needed to attend Donald Duck style to avoid fabric-on-leg contact, tell me more about this well tolerated topical
if you havedermatitis, exzema, you can try tacrolimus, or another inhibitor like elidel(pimecrolimus). you will have to avoid sunlight for a couple hours though(it does cause itching but that goes away after continious uses)if exposed to sunlight it amplifies the ithcing, warm feeling. some people dont like the itching or the sensations, it goes way after a while.
unlike the steroid it wont cause thinning or rebound effect(aka steroid withdrawal), safe for use of the eyes. you have to ask the derm for it though.
He’s a Nazi. It’s actually an efficient way to get rid of all ill people that are not rich. Don’t need no concentration camps yet.
And for those who aren’t rich but have jobs with decent employer-provided healthcare, it will make those people fearful of undertaking any protest actions that may see them on the wrong side of a doxxing campaign or an illegal detention.
It’s about threading fear through the fabric of society.
This right here is exactly what he’s up to.
