Having multiple deadly allergies and needing to purchase EpiPens regularly, their price doesn't seem outrageous to me.

I pay about $10 a pen, insurance pays about $100 per (even after the price increase). That being said, people rarely use this drug. $100 to save your life once a year or so kind of seems like a fair trade.

This seems more like the media is outraged as opposed to the country. All my friends don't even know about this price change, I only know about it because I read the news more often.
