Fertility treatment highlighted as TrumpRx site goes live

TrumpRx launched with coupons for 43 drugs, including four used in IVF, but experts say those discounts cover only a small portion of overall IVF costs.

TrumpRx, the White House drug discount platform, went live earlier this month with coupons for 43 medications. The site includes four drugs that are used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures. Reporters and experts note that fertility, weight-loss and menopause medicines are overrepresented on the initial list. The White House has said additional drug discounts will be added to the platform in coming months. Key facts: - The TrumpRx launch lists 43 medications and includes four medicines used in IVF treatment. - Users can print coupons or add them to digital wallets, and the site offers a search function for medications. - Experts and professional groups say fertility drug discounts are only a fraction of IVF costs; pharmaceutical costs are typically reported as about 10–20% of a cycle. - The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services estimates TrumpRx discounts could save patients up to $2,200 per IVF cycle, while single cycles can cost up to $30,000 out of pocket and many clinics advise planning for multiple cycles. - The Heritage Foundation, which influenced Project 2025, has expressed ethical objections to IVF, and some observers say that stance may limit broader policy moves on fertility care. Summary: The TrumpRx launch provides drug discounts that include some fertility medications but experts and advocates say those savings represent a limited portion of total IVF expenses. The White House says more drugs will be added to the platform in the coming months. The overall impact on access and total out-of-pocket spending is undetermined at this time.
