Martin Shkreli may get competition for his pricey drug, after all
Thanks to a compounding pharmacy, Martin Shkreli’s company may no longer have a lock on the market for its pricey anti-infective drug Daraprim.
A little-known company called Imprimis Pharmaceuticals announced plans to make a combination medicine that includes pyrimethamine, the same active ingredient found in Daraprim. And Imprimis intends to charge just $99 for a bottle of 100 capsules, or about $1 each. Daraprim costs $750 per tablet.
