Allergan, the maker of Botox ® and Botox Cosmetic ®, has raised it's pricing, forcing many providers to roll this hike into the overall cost of the treatment.
Compared to today’s 2008 pricing, the increase is as follows:
Base year 2007: 3.96 %
Base year 2005: 12.67 %
While there are efforts by various drug companies to develop a drug rivaling Botox ®, no such product is currently available. While Allergan has not announced any further price hikes, its current monopoly on the market and its price hike history makes us expect additional price increases.
