Bill overview
This bill, the Fair Prescription Drug Prices for Americans Act, aims to lower prescription drug costs in the United States by establishing a cap on drug prices. It requires that the price a U.S. pharmacy charges for certain medications cannot exceed the average price of those same drugs in Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom. The bill directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to calculate and monitor these average prices, and it includes penalties for manufacturers who sell drugs at prices exceeding the international average.
