EpiPens are not the only prescription drugs with steep price hikes. For instance, when Turing Pharmaceuticals increased the cost of Daraprim, a drug used by some cancer and AIDS patients, from $13.50 to $750 last year, it sparked outrage... Albuterol, an asthma medicine, has also increased in price in recent years... For patients who may not be able to afford EpiPens, there are limited alternatives.
