They're amortizing investment in R&D (past & future) into the cost of the treatment, building in the cost of liability risk & accounting for the presently very expensive processing.

But that's not actually how the price is set.

It's set by the alternative cost of care.

There was a JAMA article looking at pharmacoeconomics/ICER scores in the context of primary prevention where it gotten beaten by Contrave.

There’s also a branch area of study in pharmacy called pharmacoeconomics. Many pharmacists pursue careers outside the clinical realm in areas such as public health policy and outcomes research and it’s becoming increasingly more common these days.
