if we're serious about finding new cures, congress should better fund the fda so that the fda can do its work. we need to make a real commitment of real dollars here. thank you very much. >> dr. kesselheim, according to the data here, between july 2013 and june 2014, at least 1200 generic drugs more than doubled in price. are you aware of this? >> yes. >> there is one generic drug on the lot that could reverse the effects of heroine overdose or opiods in minutes. according to cdc, heroine related overdoss nearly group ruineleled over the last decade. and yet the company that makes this in the nasal formula increased its prices across the country by more than 50% over the past year. and baltimore, where i live, the cost of this more than doubled in less than one year. doctor kesselman, are you aware of these price hikes? >> yes. >> the only explanation for these price increases seems to be that this company see tess increase in demand for the product and it sees the lack of competition and it is increasing its price toes make additional profits. this year, i introduced a medicaid gene

if the fda is using that authority? >> sure. there are a number of pathways the fda has to provide patients with access to important new drugs treating serious to life threatening conditions or meeting unmet medical need. there are at least five different pathways that have the effect of or intent of trying to speed new cures to market. last year approximately two-thirds of the drugs approved by the fda were approved via one of these accelerated development or review pathways. not only does the fda have these pathways in place but it's using them liberally. if you look at the statistics a a lot of new drugs are being approved on the basis of studies on a -- treating bio markers or other sur got end points. most drugs are approved in six months or less despite the fact that they're intended to be for chronic diseases and used for a lifetime. so i think the actual statistics and data don't support the industry's assertion that there is a very long and arduous process for testing and proving new drugs once it's known those

now the fda is strengthening the warnings on this class of painkillers and there's a lot of money on the line for a lot of well known companies. meg terrell has the numbers. >> reporter: the fda's stronger warnings will appear in the coming months on popular over the counter medicines like motrin advil, and aleve. they are in a class of painkillers called enseds. the new warnings are more specific saying those serious side effects can occur as early as the first few weeks of use. >> your risk goes up the longer that you're on it and the higher the dose so for most people you know if they are not getting any benefit, they don't need to take these medications to begin with but if you're getting a benefit, you have to weigh that against the risk. >> inseds are big money for prescription companies. $2.5 billion in sales last year. in total, more than 100 million prescriptions were dispensed. americans bought more than 275 million boxes of over the counters in 2013 amounting to $1.7 billion in sales, according to retail tracker iri. major makers include johnson and johnson, pfizer and bay

their expert said the fda tested -- >> let me give you a second example. the melvin study says this is how it happened. it gave this drug in doses of .02 to .06. and what it show was at .06 dose there was less effect than at .02. and he said this suggests that there is a ceiling effect to this drug and that it is left potent as you go in higher doses. now you quoted for saying -- and you took out the eclipse. there may be a ceiling -- you quote it by saying that the melvin study for the position that studies on humans have found that the anesthetic effect of midazolam increases linearly. but what melvin actually said after pointing out that the ceiling effect is shown by his study, he says, but presuming there were no ceiling effect extrapolation of our data suggests that such a dose would be sufficient. you took out that -- >> respectfully, justice sotomayor, what they were comparing is .2 per kilo dose to a .6 milligram dose of midazolam. they said we would have expected midazolam to have a greater effect than the other drug because it's more potent than

the fda is changing the warning labors on ad phil, motrin, -- one pain relievers, changing the labels on advil, motrin, and aleve. reporter: an important warning about pain relievers. the fda said nsaid drugs can increase the risk of heart attack and stroke by up to 50%. >> this is a significant change from the fda, because it is saying a drug that many people don't think twice about taking, they are saying think twice. reporter: the warning labels now changing, dropping the word "may," saying now that it does increase the risk. researchers say it begins with the very first dose. the more you take, the longer you take it, the higher the risk. doctors say it should not be a serious concern for everyone. >> for people who occasionally take one of these drugs for pain or fever, there is not a lot to worry about. for people have underlying heart disease, who are taking these drugs every day, you really need to think about this and look at the options. reporter: doctors warn switching to a different kind of pain reliever is not necessarily the way to go because they all have potential side

. >>> and the fda is dialing up its warning on some big names like advil and aleve. they are cautioning that certain drugs might increase your risk of a heart attack or stroke. >> we see patients with high blood pressure, heart attacks, and you ask what's going on with you and you find out they've been staking nonsteroidal drugs. tracie potts is live in washington with us. what do we know about these new warnings? >> reporter: what's new here is that the fda now believes it can happen much sooner and at higher doses, typically people who are taking more of it are at a higher risk. they also think it can happen within a week or a few weeks of taking these drugs. many times people are combining the drugs and that's a concern. celebrex a prescription drug that's in that class pretty much everything except for aspirin in that class. what the fda wants you to do is take the lowest possible dose maybe even try acetaminophen first. they're putting more prominent warning labels so people are aware there is this risk. >>> the fbi now says arrests in the past few weeks like li

can you talk about advancements in this area and the implications for the up fda? how do they need to involve? >> i think the issue of precision medicine is an opportunity. the right to as a professor to leave to study the particle protein drug for lung cancer and but as the age the reason we've lost though war on cancer rigo down the wrong assumption but to explain and precision medicine can save us but not the urgency of what we need to do. we had always assumed as a nation and society that cancer was a single clone the the rise of horrible clone and it grows and you would kill it so we had been going down this path of the single drug of chemotherapy radiation therapy and it makes sense if it was a single clone to try to kill it to put you through a horrible process. and hope you come down at the end alive with the clone dead and your body alive. if that were true we would have cared cancer today. and amazing assumption was made by a simple mathematical calculation that in retrospect that cancer cells grew but it turns out now and there are 10,000 clones and also

the fda has to look into this. the research at roswell park institute has to go through in this country to find out what's going on. but 1,000 cubans have received this and globally they have about 5,000 patients who have gotten this. the reason why it's coming from cuba is because they are doing, you know, more with what they have, and they were desperate because of 55 years of embarko on them and the immunology institute in havana has brilliant scientists and they are collaborating with some cancer institute in this country and hopefully a lot of good things will come as a result of this. the way that this would work is the cancer cells, they have something called epithelial growth factors. every cancer cell needs fuel or gas to grow. what the vaccine will do is take the fuel away and slow down the process and what they are finding out in 2007 in clinical oncology, they found that it increases the antibodies that reduces the tumor size. going back to you, it's not a cure. it's not a prevention. i don't want peopl
