The article in the Globe & Mail published on Friday October 23, 2015 http://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/valeants-ties-to-philidor-pharmacy-raises-concerns-over-drug-pricing/article26962707/ talks about Drug Company Valeant owning a dispensing pharmacy.

  • Should Drug Companies be dispensing their drugs?
  • Is this a conflict of interest?
  • Do the prescription drugs have to be that expensive, when they spend more on advertising then they are on research?
  • Should we be questioning the Drug Companies instead of going after the Government to pay for these drugs?

This article is a great lead into my next set of articles on the Costs of Prescription Drugs.
