WASHINGTON — It’s official: The Trump administration will begin requiring drug makers to include their sticker prices in TV ads — and those updates could hit the airwaves as soon as this summer.
The administration on Tuesday finalized the controversial proposal, which top health officials first outlined back in May of last year. It is set to take effect in about two months and will apply to any drugs that cost more than $35 for a month’s supply.

I’m glad to see that Mr. Trump is doing something. I know it doesn’t stop these scum bag drug companies from screwing the American people but it is a step in the right direction. Proud of you, Mr. Trump
Do you think there is any way to get prescription medication commercials off tv?
How about no ads on television, that drops the medication bill by 4 billion dollars and quits making people think they need it, especially when the commercial says ask your doctor if whatever is good for you.
The goal is to reduce prices. Advertising prices l cannot pay is just like learning the price at the pharmacy. Bring the prices down to those of other countries. Stop stealing from Americans.
high drug prices? SOLVED!
so much winning
Exactly. so now you know at home instead of the pharmacy that you can’t afford the medication. Big Deal!
