Alex Oshmyansky, MD, PhD is the CEO & Founder at Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company. Dr. Alex along with strategic investor & business mogul Mark Cuban has launched Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, a pharmaceutical company that plans to make less expensive versions of selected generic drugs. The company's first drug is a generic version of albendazole, an antiparasitic drug used to treat hookworm. Treated early, two tablets will treat the infection; left untreated, cognitive defects and neurological problems can result. Cost Plus Drug Company is dedicated to producing low-cost versions of high-cost generic drugs. In this interview, Dr. Alex pledges to provide radical transparency in how they price their drugs. Dr. Alex has committed letting everyone know what it costs to manufacture, distribute, and market drugs to pharmacies. They will add a flat 15% margin to get wholesale prices. This will help to ensure they remain viable and profitable. There are no hidden costs, no middlemen, no rebates only available to insurance companies. Everybody gets the same low price for every drug they make. The Pharmacy Podcast Network is the global leader in podcast content for the Business & Profession of Pharmacy.
