US President Donald Trump has announced major cuts in prescription drug prices. The move is under a new “Most Favoured Nation” policy. It links US drug prices to lower prices paid in other countries. Trump said the policy will sharply reduce healthcare costs in the US. He also said trade pressure and tariff threats were used on foreign nations. Indian drug companies supply many low-cost medicines to the US. The new policy may affect how much they earn. Experts say pricing pressure could rise on both branded and generic drugs. Indian firms may face challenges but remain key to US healthcare supply chains. (PC: NDTV)
