When sold to treat MS it has a 10000 x markup over the same medication sold to treat cancer.
- refurb 12y agoThe reason for this is that you can't have two different prices for two different diseases when it's the same drug. The company decided to stop selling it for cancer (they now give it away for free) to optimize for the MS market.
