A course of treatment costing 10 yuan would indeed be prohibitive for many patients' families.

Even a family with a monthly income of 5 yuan cannot afford such drug prices.

Because the medicine costs 50,000, but there are other costs involved.

Faced with such expensive drugs, most middle-class families would probably be unable to afford them or even lose everything.

The most important point is,

This medicine won't work in just one or two days.

Instead, it needs to be taken continuously for a long time, and you need to take medicine almost every month.

If it is early-stage liver cancer, the problem is not serious. A course of treatment costs 10 yuan, so it is not impossible if you grit your teeth.

Or if it is liver cancer in the middle stage, for people with a little assets, they may have a chance of survival even if they give up everything.

But if it is late stage liver cancer, it will take a very long time to cure, at least two to five years.

It takes so long, how much money does it cost?

How many people can afford the treatment?

"Novartis must know that something is wrong with Dasheng Pharmaceutical Group."

"So their special medicine has no competitors."

"And in the absence of competitors, they have complete control over the pricing of new drugs and can set prices without worrying about potential setbacks."

"Pharmaceutical companies care about profits, not charity. They only think about how to make the most profit, and don't consider whether someone can't afford the medicine." Chen Xuan's flat voice sounded.

Although he was a little surprised by Novartis's pricing, he had roughly guessed it.

Hearing this, Zhang San couldn't help but remain silent!

He knew that this was indeed the truth.

Pharmaceutical companies, also commercial companies, naturally will not do charity.

This is no different from other capital companies. At most, the industry is more special and the standards are higher.

But this does not mean that pharmaceutical companies will be sympathized by other capitals. They are still profit-centric.

If Dasheng Pharmaceutical Group's special medicine can be successful, Novartis will naturally not disclose such an outrageous price.

But the failure of Dasheng Pharmaceutical Group has doomed Novartis to a high profile!

Although the contract signed by Novartis does not include the Chinese market, once Dasheng Pharmaceutical's drugs are successfully researched, they can also sell them overseas.

Therefore, Dasheng Pharmaceutical Group is now Novartis' number one competitor.

Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaotian killed himself.

From then on, life-saving drugs became extremely expensive.

This affects not only foreign countries, but also China!

Because when the contract was signed, an extra clause was added to avoid disputes!

"But I don't think their pricing would be that outrageous."

"High-priced drugs do have high profits, but too few families can afford them, which leads to low sales."

"So, sky-high drug prices don't necessarily generate higher profits, especially when the patient population is large. If the price is slightly lowered, the final profit will actually be higher."

After a moment of silence, Chen Xuan spoke again.

Pharmaceutical companies really don't consider the patient's ability to bear it.

But they will consider how big the audience is and then decide the final price.

Normally, pharmaceutical companies should make the most appropriate trade-off between price and sales volume to maximize profits.

So, according to his estimation, this pricing should not be that outrageous.

At the very least, 99% of people will not be unable to afford this medicine, and Novartis will not generate much profit.

"And what do they mean?"

"If that's the case, why did Novartis announce this price so loudly?" Zhang San's confused voice came from the phone.

He really didn't understand why he did this?

Since you are going to choose a low price, why are you suddenly announcing a high price now?

Isn't this just making the company get criticized for nothing?
