Amgen's Just-Approved Migraine Drug Will Cost $6,900 a Year
Amgen Inc. will charge a lower-than-expected $6,900 a year for a novel migraine treatment that investors hope will become the biotechnology giant’s next blockbuster. The Food and Drug Administration approved the drug, which will be marketed under the brand name Aimovig, on Thursday. Amgen’s pricing plans for Aimovig have been closely watched amid a wider U.S. debate over high prescription costs.
