21 October 2019 - Minister Hunt talks at the Great Strides Fun Run about the listing of 2 new medicines, Symdeko and Orkambi, on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme for patients with cystic fibrosis.
I am delighted to announce that from the first of December, the Australian Government will list two new medicines, Symdeko and Orkambi, on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme for patients with cystic fibrosis.
These medicines would otherwise be $250,000 a year, and will now be available for as little as $6.50 a script.
