Prescription drugs in England are price-controlled

The United States is the only developed country in the world that does not impose government price caps and controls on pharmaceutical products. As a result, American drug prices tend to rise without limitations.

In the United Kingdom, a government body tracks international drug prices to ensure UK prices never exceed affordable levels. Price regulations are federally enforced, and are designed to keep the cost of medications reasonable. When Americans buy United Kingdom drugs, they can save up to 70%, even for identical products.

Free trade and UK prescription drugs

Another factor that helps stabilize and control drug prices in the UK is the European Union (EU) free trade agreement. Because pharmaceutical products can be traded freely across borders, pharmacists and citizens are able to search for the best prices available in Europe. EU member states must keep their drug prices steady and comparable to the prices in other countries in order to remain competitive. The United States has no similar stabilizing factor.
