Ever wonder how much those expensive drugs at the pharmacy cost to manufacture

Well, I have to say, very interesting, and it proves what I've always believed, everything's overpriced.

Drug Price Up

Well actually, initially it takes the drug company anywhere from millions to billions of dollars to put a drug up on the market. So while the cost of ingredients to the consumer price might have an outlandish markup, the drug company is just making back what it lost. After the drug has been on the market for awhile though, thats when they start to rake in their profits.
