The ceo of a Major Pharmaceutical Company was put in the hot seat on capitol hill. After the steep rise of the price of epi pens. Ali gorman is live with more. Reporter as expected she was grilled today. Lawmakers questioned how much the company made in profits off the live saving medication and why if the drug hasnt changed has the price gone up so sharply. The ceo is facing harsh questions from the House Oversight committee, the problem is the skyrocketing price of epi pen auto injecter, used to treat lifethreatening allergic reactions. The cost of two pens went from 100 in 2009 to more than 600 this year. They raise the prices, the reason being, i believe, to get filthy rich at the expense of our constituents. Brash testified that there is a misconception about the companys profits. They have not yielded the profit that you assume. Its 100 to 50 a pen. That overall the company made hundreds of millions of dollars in epi pen sales in 2015, her salary is also under scrutiny, that bresh made 2. 45 million in 2007 and last year she brought in 18 million. A 671 increase she says to cut cost to consumers mylan will offer a cheaper generic access and the company has touted in the last four years it gave out 700,000 free epi pens to schools and that move is also being questioned. Usa today reports that her mother, gail mansion, the former head of a National Education group encouraged states to require school to buy products like epi pens, she said the article is inaccurate and thousands of epi pens auto injecters were donated with no strings attached. They say that she did not submit documents requested about the companys expenses and profits per year and this follows other hearings of Drug Companies raising prices of other drugs, they say its time for congress to step in.
