I take one of these drugs, Farxiga - I’m diabetic. It’s listed here at $556 a box, I was paying almost $400 a month as my insurance copay in the states. Six months ago I moved to Portugal and here in the European Union it costs me 7 euros to fill that same prescription for 90 days. And that’s through the Public Health Service; I don’t have private health care at all!
