"Novo Nordisk remains committed to ensuring patients living with diabetes can afford our insulins, a responsibility we take seriously."

The Biden administration has put public pressure on drugmakers to make medically necessary insulins more affordable. Novo Nordisk notably did not put a cap on out-of-pocket expenses.
