Medicine, Article.

Medicine

I was reading this article and I had came across this really interesting piece of information.
“The good news is that, at least in terms of the next 10 years, prescription-drug costs will probably decline or moderate for many consumers,” says Dan Carpenter, the co-director of Harvard University’s Initiative on Medications and Society.
This means drugs and medicine will cost less for the us citizens.

I thought this was an also cool piece of info i would share.
