Drug giants' legal threat to the NHS for using cheap drugs Two of the world's biggest drugs firms are threatening to sue the NHS to stop it using a treatment nearly 70 times cheaper than their medication.
Novartis and Bayer made the threat against 12 health boards in Cumbria and North-East England which have advised doctors to use a different treatment for a devastating eye condition.
Doctors have accused the pharmaceutical giants of trying to 'dictate' which drugs they can use. The Daily Mail
