Number 4: The International Coalition of Medicines Regulatory Authorities has released a statement of confidence in biosimilars.
Number 3: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, women are more likely than men not to take their diabetes medications as prescribed in an effort to save on high drug costs.
