But he said TrumpRx doesn&#8217;t serve as a &#8220;one-stop shop&#8221; for consumers who want to compare drug prices and secure the lowest costs, describing the system as more of a &#8220;catalog of coupons from existing programs from drug companies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wright also said he&#8217;d like to see TrumpRx offer a broader range of drugs, including those used to treat cancer and other diseases (see below for a list of all drug discounts available through TrumpRx.)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The White House told CBS News that such discounts only exist because the Trump administration negotiated so-called &#8220;most-favored-nation&#8221; agreements with pharmaceutical firms to lower prices. Under that policy, drugmakers must sell meds to U.S. customers at the same prices available in other countries, including those with lower drug costs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>TrumpRx is also focused on offering the lowest prices on branded products, the White House noted, acknowledging that more affordable generic versions of the drugs may be available elsewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Who is TrumpRx for?<\/h2>\n<p>A drawback of TrumpRx is that discounts are available only to patients who buy drugs in cash, Wright said. That means people must pay for prescriptions out of pocket and can&#8217;t use their health insurance, while those expenses will not count toward meeting a consumer&#8217;s health plan deductible.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is focused pretty narrowly on people who are uninsured and are buying prescription drugs with cash rather than through a health plan,&#8221; Wright told CBS News.<\/p>\n<p>When <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/white-house-launches-trumprx-discounted-drug-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">TrumpRx launched<\/a><\/span> on Feb. 5, the site listed more than 40 brand-name drugs, with the Trump administration saying that more discounted medications will be added over time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Merith Basey, CEO of Patients For Affordable Drugs Now (P4ADNow), a national patient organization that works to lower drug prices, said the coupons TrumpRx offers are not unique to the platform, noting that similar discounts are already available in the marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>To assess the savings available through TrumpRx, the group compared the service with what consumers can find for the same drugs via GoodRx, a Santa Monica, Calif., company that offers discounted meds. TrumpRx&#8217;s pricing was superior for only eight drugs, P4ADNow found, as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bevespi (chronic bronchitis) \u2014 89% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Cetrotide (fertility)\u00a0 \u2014 93% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Farxiga (Type 2 Diabetes) \u2014 52% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Genotropin (human growth hormone) \u2014 60% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Insulin Lispro (blood sugar control) \u2014 65% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Ovidrel (fertility) \u2014 67% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Xigduo XR (Type 2 Diabetes) \u2014 70% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<li>Zepbound (weight loss) \u2014 72% discount through TrumpRx<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>GoodRx offered equally steep discounts on 33 of the drugs listed on TrumpRx, while cheaper generic alternatives were available for 15 TrumpRx medications, according to the group&#8217;s analysis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For example, Colestid, a drug that lowers cholesterol for people at risk of heart disease, costs $67.20 if purchased through TrumpRx, while a generic version of the drug costs $21.70.<\/p>\n<p>Most insurers don&#8217;t cover weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. TrumpRx and GoodRx both offer Ozempic for $199 for a 0.25 milligram pen, which has a list price of over $1,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The same is typically true of fertility drugs, including Gonal-F, which costs $252 with a TrumpRx or GoodRx coupon and which has a list price of nearly $1,200.<\/p>\n<h2>Drug discounts available through TrumpRx<\/h2>\n<p>For now, TrumpRx offers discounts on a total of 43
