The HIV burden among transgender women worldwide is literally at epidemic proportions but the one drug that could begin to put a dent in this is priced so high that there’s no way trans women could ever access it unless we’re lucky enough to be under an insurance plan that might pay for it. It just… it makes me almost cry thinking about it. How do these drug executives sleep at night?!

This is a great source of knowledge of generics. If you are lucky, you can medicate yourself for as little as 30 pounds a month. Unfortunatelly, this is specific for UK, and even though you can import to other EU countries, further than that the prices rise rapidly and the timing of sending can vary greatly.
