With patent protection for Viagra and Cialis coming to a close a United States (U.S.) and Lilly's push to take Cialis over the counter, I am curious as to how the post-patent pricing model will look. Granted, both companies have fought like the ****ens to extend patent protection with some success, but it is only a matter of time before there are other sources for sildenafil and tadalafil in the U.S. My bet is that companies entering the U.S. market will work hard to maintain high price points. After all, the U.S. is where most pharmaceutical companies earn the bulk of their profit. The current cash prices for 100mg Viagra and 20mg Cialis are $40 and $60.00 per tablet at my pharmacy. Cialis generates $1.5B in sales every year in the U.S. alone. That is a serious cash cow to lose.
