Statement from President Joe Biden on Action to Lower Insulin Costs

Today, Eli Lilly, the largest manufacturer of insulin in the United States, announced that they are lowering their prices, capping what patients pay out of pocket for the drug maker’s insulin products at $35.  For far too long, American families have been crushed by drug costs many times higher than what people in other countries are charged for the same prescriptions.
