Rest Up, Biopharma. Trump’s Drug Pricing Policy Is Coming on Monday
May 9, 2025
Annalee Armstrong

With President Donald Trump expected to deliver a drug pricing order on Monday that Big Pharma and patient groups alike have railed against, the industry’s tumultuous ride is far from over.

The biopharma world has been waiting with bated breath to see what President Donald Trump will do with the Inflation Reduction Act. Next week, we may finally know, as Trump teased in the Oval Office on Monday that a major drug pricing initiative is coming next week.

The IRA has been extremely maligned by the industry, particularly the “ pill penalty,” referring to the IRA’s longer period of protection from price negotiations for biologics than for small molecules. The industry contends this penalizes innovation, and Trump has actually shown support for equalizing the two drug classes. At the time, BMO heralded the order as long-overdue “good news from DC.”

But now, the analyst firm is asking: “Can we catch a break?”

That’s because BMO predicts that Trump’s anticipated executive order will direct Health and Human Services to use international drug prices in the negotiations that are already scheduled to happen under the IRA.
