are you familiar with fixed and variable cost concepts? That is the cost of drug produced in X amount = aX + b. If country like Canada would regulate that this drug can not be sold at higher price than a+.01 and b/X(Canada)=.80 what should the company do - sell the drug in Canada and make up for fixed portion from US market. Now, what would happened if US would put Canadian style regulations? There would be no drugs neither in Canada nor in US. is that sufficiently chewed up for you
