The website launched by the government is not a platform for selling medications, but a facilitator that guides Americans to the manufacturers' websites, also providing coupons for pharmacies. It includes over 40 medications, including weight loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, and is part of an initiative by the Trump administration to address issues related to high drug costs. Trump emphasized that lower prices are the result of pressure on pharmaceutical companies, demanding that they offer the same costs in the U.S. as in other countries. He also made agreements with major drug manufacturers to reduce Medicaid prices to the level of the "most favored nation." The details of these agreements remain unclear, and prices may vary depending on competition and insurance coverage. The administration has also negotiated lower prices for prescription medications for Medicare beneficiaries through a direct negotiation program.
