Sarah Jessica Parker Quits EpiPen Campaign


Bravo to the "Sex and the City" star, who is as disgusted with pharmaceutical villain and bald-faced liar Heather Bresch as the rest of the nation is.

The epinephrine auto-injector is a vital part of our family's healtchare, as it is for the many who are at risk. I recently learned that the price of the EpiPen has been systematically raised by Mylan to a point that renders the medication cost-prohibitive for countless people. I am left disappointed, saddened and deeply concerned by Mylan's actions. I do not condone this decision and I have ended my relationship with Mylan as a direct result of it. I hope they will seriously consider the outpouring of voices and those millions of people who are dependent on the device and to take swift action to lower the cost to be more affordable for whom it is a life-saving necessity.
