Do you think you're paying too much for your prescription medications?

Mark Cuban thinks so too.

That's why the billionaire entrepreneur and Pittsburgh native has launched a new lost-cost online pharmacy called the "Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company.”

“If you go to costplusdrugs.com, set up an account, put in the name of your drug, and if we have it, not only will it be cheaper, but it’s probably going to be less than your co-pay from your insurance company.”

He tells Marty Griffin on NewsRadio KDKA that he started this with a simple mission in mind, to be the low-cost provider of drugs in the country.

“It’s insane that in the United States of America in 2022, people have to make choices between rent, food and their medication.”

Cuban says he plans to add a thousand more drugs by the end of the year.
