The Trump administration launched its new TrumpRx prescription drug listing site late Thursday, part of a push by President Trump to offer lower direct-to-consumer drug prices.
The president struck deals last year with more than a dozen drugmakers to list some of their medication on TrumpRx at steep discounts from list prices, with megacompanies like Pfizer and Novo Nordisk — known for weight loss and diabetes drugs Ozempic and Wegovy — signing on.
The site lists dozens of prescription drugs at reduced rates. For example, a four-week supply of Wegovy injection pens is listed at $199 for the first two months and $349 after that, well below the list price of $1,349.02.
The site does not sell drugs directly — instead, users are prompted to print out a gold-embossed coupon that it says can be used at pharmacies.
In a White House event Thursday evening, Mr. Trump called it "one of the most transformative health care initiatives of all time."
