Health Matters: How do tariffs on prescription drugs work?
U.S. President Donald Trump wants to slap tariffs on Canadian-made drugs. Can he do that and what would it mean for drug supply and cost? We speak with Mina Tadrous from the University of Toronto.

We’re analyzing (early teaser) where the U.S. really gets its final drug dosages from—and early data is eye-opening.

🆕! Talk of tariffs is leaving many confused about how they'll affect drug prices & supply in the US. In JAMA, experts @mina-t.bsky.social & Dr. Katie Suda & team describe how tariffs on Canadian 💊 will impact US patients & payers.
