Hi Littlepaw,

Unbelievable, isn't it?

Thanks so much for passing it on!
I have done so as well.

The articles does mention a couple of politicians involved in investigating. I have just checked that link in the NYT article and found this:

"WASHINGTON, Aug. 14 — As a part of their investigation into recent drug price increases, Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vt), Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging, Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions and Rep. Elijah E. Cummings (D-Md.), Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, sent a letter to Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc., requesting information about the escalating prices the company has been charging for two drugs it purchased from another drug company earlier this year."

This link also gives links to the letters written to Valeant and to Hospira.

I hope these practices are stopped, reversed, regulated... immediately.
