Mylan, the drug company currently in the news for being awful, is set to unveil an “authorized generic” version of their EpiPen, as announced today.
The official EpiPen costs $608.81, much more than the $100 it cost in 2007. The new “authorized generic” EpiPen will cost $300. It will be the same as the “branded” version other than having slightly different packaging.
