Actelion Tracleer distribution network bypasses traditional wholesale and retail outlets. Monthly supplies of pulmonary hypertension agent will be shipped direct to patients, along with reminders to comply with liver monitoring and pregnancy screening recommendations. Drug will cost approximately $28,500 per year. Actelion hopes to have 3,000 patients on therapy by end of 2002.

--From Pink Sheet

FWIW, if I were the mnfr I would approach this drug with the intent of MAXIMIZING patient compliance with liver testing.
