SUS doesn't have a good track record when it comes to offering modern drugs and treatments. It takes years if not decades for medications to be covered, even when generics are available. Patients often had to go to court with documents from their doctor in order to make things happen. I've lost count of how many patients I've helped get their treatments... And now the supreme court has closed the door on them. Still, after dapagliflozin I'm ready to believe it. There's also the fact semaglutide will straight up win votes for politicians that provide it. I expect it to mirror the evolution of dapagliflozin in SUS: it will be offered unconditionally at first, then as they start to feel the weight of the costs involved they'll start imposing conditions and forcing patients to go through endless bureaucracy to get their medication. Age requirements, comorbity requirements, obnoxious paperwork that "justifies" the need for such a drug. Oh I'll gladly fill out those forms...
