(RTTNews) - Pfizer Inc. (PFE) announced the launch of its TrumpRx program, designed to make innovative medicines more affordable and accessible to millions of Americans.

The program, part of Pfizer's landmark Most Favored Nation (MFN) agreement with the U.S. government, aims to lower prescription costs for conditions affecting over 100 million people, including migraines, rheumatoid arthritis, menopause, atopic dermatitis, and overactive bladder.
Pfizer is also partnering with GoodRx to provide patients greater flexibility, enabling them to use coupons at nearly any U.S. pharmacy or opt for select at-home delivery options.
PFE closed regular trading at $26.49, down $0.29 or 1.08%. In overnight trading, the stock slipped slightly to $26.44, down $0.05 or 0.19%.
