This has allowed the robust generic competition to continue that has, for example, resulted in the price of a basic HIV treatment combination dropping by 99% over the course of a decade, from over US$10,000 to around $100.<\/p>\n<p>More than 80% of the medicines MSF uses to treat over 200,000 people living with HIV in its projects are Indian generics, and MSF sources essential medicines from India to treat other diseases, including tuberculosis and malaria. India also produces affordable versions of medicines for non-communicable diseases, now considered too expensive even for healthcare systems in developed countries. In the US itself, insurers, treatment providers and patients have reached a pain threshold with exploitation and price gouging by the pharmaceutical industry with, for example, cancer medicines priced at more than $100,000 per patient, new hepatitis C medicines at $1,000 per pill, and old medicines jumping from $13.50 to $750 per pill, literally overnight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>U.S Pressure<\/strong><br \/>\nThe US government, backed strongly by its pharmaceutical lobby, is not only pressuring India to dilute its patentability standards but has been persistently pushing India to implement a drug regulatory system which essentially links registration of medicines to their patent status (patent linkage), and the Indian Ministry of Health appears to be seriously considering such changes.<\/p>\n<p>The multinational pharmaceutical industry is pushing hard to stamp out the competition from India,\u201d said Leena Menghaney, South Asia Manager of MSF\u2019s Access Campaign. \u201cIndia must not accept the US line that intellectual property, linked to high drug prices, is the only way to bring in investment; it\u2019s simply not the case.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe urge Prime Minister Modi not to accept US demands and standards on intellectual property\u201d, said Menghaney. \u201cMillions of lives are at stake.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enjoyed reading this news story?
