  1. <b>"$13.50 and you only need less than 100 pills. So uh at the end of the day, the price per course of treatment is only $1000 to save your life! And we know these days, modern pharmaceuticals, cancer drugs can cost $100,000 or more. Daraprim is still underpriced, relative to its peers."</b>
Copy the Code
According to the New York Times, Martin Shkreli, 32, the founder and chief executive of Turing Pharmaceuticals, purchased the rights to Daraprim for $55 million on the same day that Turing announced it had raised $90 million from Shkreli and other investors in its first round of financing.

Daraprim is used for treating toxoplasmosis — an opportunistic parasitic infection that can cause serious or even life-threatening problems in babies and for people with compromised immune systems like AIDS patients and certain cancer patients — that sold for slightly over $1 a tablet several years ago.  Prices have increased as the rights to the drug have been passed from one pharmaceutical company to the next, but nothing like the almost 5,500 percent increase since Shkreli acquired it.

Worrying that the cost of treatment could devastate some patients, Dr. Judith Aberg, the chief of the division of infectious diseases at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai asked, “What is it that they are doing differently that has led to this dramatic increase?”

According to Shkreli, Turing will use the money it earns to develop better treatments for toxoplasmosis, with fewer side effects.

“This isn’t the greedy drug company trying to gouge patients, it is us trying to stay in business,” Shkreli explained, saying that many patients use the drug for far less than a year and that the new price is similar to other drugs used for rare diseases.

Mamat ni mcm sengal je rupanya sbb awal2 tu asik senyum x kena tempat.

tapi, in a way, aku rasa dia bijak. perhaps, his ultimate motive is to eradicate this disease altogether.
kalau katakan ada yg argue, ada pesakit aids dapat dr orang lain, kenapa diorang kena suffer jugak? tapi... sekurang2nya, bila tak ramai orang bawak virus hiv ni, kebarangkalian orang nk dapat virus n, atau dirurunkan ke anak ke, pemindahan darah ke,i akan kurang kan?

Farking douche bag.
Kompeni lama dia ni dikatakan pernah beli hak dan naikkan harga ubat utk penyakit buah pinggang gak. Tapi akibat terlalu bijak berbisnes, dia disaman oleh kompeni sendirik.
