Well of course, I don't know why people find this surprising. You are not paying for the cost of manufacturing the single individual pill. You are paying for the cost of researching it and testing it, as well as a thousand other drugs that didn't make it to market.

If the US market didn't pay for these drugs, they wouldn't still be cheaper in India. They likely wouldn't exist at all.
