New Alzheimer's drug lecanemab will cost around ¥2.98 million per year in Japan, but will be largely covered by public health insurance that will limit the burden for patients to between 10% and 30% of that cost, subject to a cap, a health ministry body has said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/12/13/japan/eisai-biogen-alzheimers-drug-price/?utm_content=buffer4dd52&utm_medium=social&utm_source=mastodon&utm_campaign=bffmstdn #japan #alzheimer039s #drugs #eisai #biogen #pharmaceuticals
