In 2020, the use of #biosimilars generated a total of $7.9 billion in savings for patients in the U.S., bringing the 10-year total savings from biosimilars up to $12.6 billion. As more biosimilars enter the market, there is opportunity to help more patients realize potential savings and increase understanding of what a biosimilar is: 👉 Biosimilars are biologic medications that are highly similar to biologic medications already approved by the FDA. 👉 There are no clinically meaningful differences between a biosimilar and its reference biologic in terms of safety, purity and potency. 👉 Biosimilars can be prescribed for patients with or without previous treatment history on an originator biologic.

Medical gaslighting is a phenomenon where medical concerns are minimized or dismissed. For women and people of color who are disproportionately impacted by this issue, it can be a silent struggle to be heard. Without prompt medical care, including proper diagnosis and treatment, patients may face emotional and mental distress, as well as prolonged pain and other physical symptoms. If you’re experiencing symptoms, speak up. Trust your instincts and advocate for yourself to help get the care you need. #PainAwarenessMonth #MedicalGaslighting #PatientAdvocacy

Extreme heat events (EHEs) are a leading cause of weather-related injury and death in the U.S. With climate change, these events are predicted to become more frequent and intense. Prolonged heat exposure places an increased strain on the heart and can lead to heat-related illnesses if the body can’t regulate its temperature properly. While all people should be aware of the risks of EHEs, those with pre-existing cardiovascular conditions are especially vulnerable. Be safe and take precautions. Stay hydrated, avoid strenuous activities during peak heat, and seek cool environments whenever possible. #HeatSafety #ClimateChange #HeartHealth #StayCool

The ongoing growth in #biosimilar approvals means that there are more options, potentially leading to improved accessibility and driving down costs so more patients can benefit from these therapies.
