Overview
- The government site lists more than 40 medicines, including GLP-1 weight-loss treatments such as Ozempic, Wegovy and Zepbound, and directs users to manufacturer pages or pharmacy coupons.
- TrumpRx is not an online pharmacy, and its discounts apply to cash purchases that cannot be used with insurance and typically do not count toward deductibles.
- The administration says it has pricing agreements with major drugmakers including Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Novo Nordisk, AstraZeneca, Merck and EMD Serono, citing Most Favored Nation-style benchmarks.
- The rollout followed missed target dates in late January, and key details on the agreements and how posted prices compare with insured out-of-pocket costs remain unclear.
- Health policy experts question the program’s reach, noting the limited initial list and likely better deals for many insured patients, while GoodRx says its coupon codes can be used at more than 70,000 pharmacies.
