Florida's plan to import prescription medications in bulk from Canada has received FDA approval.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized a Florida program to import certain prescription drugs in bulk from Canada, marking the first time a state has been authorized to buy lower-cost medications in bulk from abroad. This decision could potentially reduce drug costs for American consumers and is seen as a significant step forward in the long-running battle to lower prices. Several other states have filed similar requests with the FDA, and the program is expected to face pushback from Big Pharma.
