The Trump (R) Administration Launched its New TrumpRx Prescription Drug Listing Site late Thursday, part of a Push by Trump to OfferL ower Direct-to-Consumer Drug Prices.
Trump struck Deals last year, with more than a Dozen Drugmakers to List some of their Medication on TrumpRx at Steep Discounts from List Prices, with Megacompanies like Pfizer and Novo Nordisk, known for Weight Loss, and Diabetes Drugs Ozempic and Wegovy, Signing On.
In a White House Event Thursday Evening, Trump called it "one of the most transformative health care initiatives of all time."
The Administration's Chief Design Officer Joe Gebbia (R), an Airbnb Founder who Helped Design the Site, said more Drugs will be Added to TrumpRx over time. It's Not clear how much of an Impact TrumpRx will have on the Prices most Americans Pay for Prescription Drugs.
Manufacturers raised List Prices of 947 Brand-Name Drugs this January, while Lowering Prices on 20, according to Drug Pricing Research Nonprofit 46brooklyn.
The List Prices for Brand-Name Ddrugs, which are like the Sticker Prices set by Drugmakers, before Rebates or Other Discounts are Negotiated, Iincreased by a Median of 4% so far in 2026, on par with Last Year's Increase. The Size of Annual Increases has Fallen in the Last Decade amid Public Backlash over High Drug Costs, but last year's Increases still Outpaced the Inflation Rate.
