With the $300 coupon I still had to pay $322 for an epi-pen...a simple medication that could save my life. I make a good living but the cost of one prescription is one-half my weekly paycheck! This is totally unacceptable!Sep 20th, 2016Someone from Pittsburgh, PA signed.

The fact that the EpiPen's needed by several people, who have life threatening allergies should be enough of a reason to stop this.REPORT COMMENTS

Even with my private insurance I was told it would be over $400 to fill this script. I had to tell CVS just not to fill it due to the cost.REPORT COMMENTS

As a practicing physician and parent of a child who has allergies requiring that we keep epipen products in our house, I have seen first hand the ridiculous annual increase in prices for epipen products. This is not a cutting edge, exotic modern medicine but a commonplace drug that is used every day in clinical practice. It is inconceivable that the rapid price ascent over the past few years can be justified medically or ethically. I'm thankful to have the resources to afford this medicine for my own family, but I worry that there are many families who are less fortunate. I think the business practice of raising prices on a mature medical product like this is unethical and unconscionable.REPORT COMMENTS

I am a mother of a child with life-threatening allergies who needs an EpiPen wherever he goes. This means we need to keep this life-saving medicine at home, at school, and for travel. At a 420% increase in price, this is an astronomical price increase on my family. We live in a country with the best healthcare in the world, but our citizens can't even afford access to it.REPORT COMMENTS

As a nurse, I am outraged that this company is profiting on the backs of vulnerable families who are terrified of their kids having a severe allergic reaction.REPORT COMMENTS

As a daughter of a wonderful woman, who has had to use her mothers epiPen on her more than once. This is an absolute atrocity and should be stopped. I'm a medic, and it sickens me that people who OD can get Narcan for free, but my mother who needs an EpiPen for it's life saving measures has to pay a ridiculous amount that keeps climbing.REPORT COMMENTS
