Just as insulin manufacturers were pressured into capping monthly out-of-pocket costs, inhaler manufacturers are feeling the same heat. AstraZeneca on Monday joined with Boehringer Ingelheim to cap the price of its blockbuster inhalers at $35 per month.
Beginning on June 1, AstraZeneca’s four inhalers, including Symbicort and Airsupra, will be capped, according to the company. AstraZeneca recorded more than $2.3 billion in Symbicort sales in 2023, but generic competition entered the US market in the third quarter of last year.
