While not as bad as $400, $100 would still be a significant price _increase_ compared to 2008 (even when accounting for inflation).

- tjohns 4y agoKeep in mind $100 is the retail price, not the wholesale price (which is what's plotted on the above graph). I do not know what the current wholesale price is for a generic epi-pen. My point is merely that the price is trending back down now that there's competition. And again, with insurance it's effectively free for most people - either through private insurance or medicaid.
