"Generic drugs are supposed to be easy to get and cheap. But recently, the price of some generic drugs has doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled. And now, patients are starting to feel the pinch."

AZ is going to be a generics company if it survives the upcoming expiries. What else are they going to do, with no new products?
