Our goal is to price our products responsibly while providing the best possible healthcare for the greatest number of people.
At Mallinckrodt, we are focused on delivering innovative therapies that can meet the needs of underserved patients suffering from severe and critical conditions. We believe in responsible pricing that reflects the therapy’s value to patients, providers, and the healthcare system as a whole. In line with this and our ability to ensure patient access to our therapies, we will provide advance notification of changes in the pricing of certain Mallinckrodt therapies as part of our Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General.

Reason for Proposed 2025 Price Increase: Mallinckrodt is increasing the list price of Acthar® Gel by 3% on January 1, 2025. The Brand's price increase is below the rate of the Consumer Price Index inflation, and Mallinckrodt believes its pricing strategy reflects the benefits Acthar® Gel brings to patients and society. The company is committed to ensuring appropriate patients have access to therapy, and Mallinckrodt continues to invest to achieve that goal. Key areas of investment include research and development, bringing Acthar® Gel Single-Dose Pre-filled SelfJect™ Injector to market and investing in appropriate staffing for our patient assistance programs. The last pricing action taken by Mallinckrodt on Acthar® Gel was a 3% increase in January 2024. Acthar’s list price is not reflective of the significant, and annually increasing, discounts frequently available to customers. | |||||

Reason for Proposed 2023 Price Increase: Mallinckrodt is increasing the list price of Acthar® Gel by 3% on January 2, 2023. This price increase is a result of continued product innovation and increased costs incurred by Mallinckrodt to operate the business. This falls below the Consumer Price Index.

Reason for Proposed 2022 Price Increase: Mallinckrodt is increasing the list price of Acthar® Gel by 4% on February 1, 2022, the first price increase for Acthar in more than two years. Acthar’s list price does not reflect significant discounts often available to customers. This increase is the result of increased costs and other financial commitments of the company, including the recent launch of a new biologic therapy to treat adults with deep partial-thickness burns and the potential launch of another therapy later this year. Since owning Acthar, Mallinckrodt has invested more than $650 million to modernize and validate Acthar for use with appropriate patients through further studies that evaluated the safety and efficacy of Acthar within our indications and modernizing the analytical testing and manufacturing processes. The last pricing action taken by Mallinckrodt on Acthar was a 2.5% increase in 2019. |
