Summary
Trump said TrumpRx.gov added 160 prescription medicines, lifting the discounted total to more than 800 and covering four out of five prescriptions filled by Americans.
The expansion builds on most-favored-nation pricing deals the administration struck with 16 drugmakers, tying lower prices for some medicines to tariff-related exemptions.
Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk are among participating companies, with discounts highlighted for GLP-1 weight-loss drugs as well as inhalers, HIV treatments, diabetes medicines and fertility drugs.
TrumpRx, launched in February, lets users search discounted medicines, estimate savings and generate coupons; Trump said the program has already saved patients more than $400 million.
Trump said he has directed his administration to pursue more pricing deals and partnerships, framing the effort as part of a broader push to bring U.S. drug prices closer to those abroad.
