Trump Announces 160 Additional Drugs Added to TrumpRx Direct-to-Consumer Platform
President Trump announced Friday that TrumpRx.gov will add 160 prescription medications to its direct-to-consumer platform, bringing the total to over 800 drugs. This marks the second expansion in two months of the federal government's discounted drug initiative. The platform sells medications directly to consumers at reduced prices. No timeline for implementation or specific drug categories were detailed in the announcement.
