DRUG PRICES ROSE FASTER THAN INFLATION IN FIRST QUARTER
August 10, 2004
Wholesale prices for nearly 200 of the most common brand drugs used by seniors increased far faster than the rate of inflation for the first three months of 2004, according to a recent study by the AARP.
An analysis of 197 brand drugs showed average increases of 3.4 percent during that period, compared to a 1.2 percent rate of inflation, the AARP said.
