Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says his office has settled with the last of the three largest insulin manufacturers following its 2018 lawsuit over unaffordable prices that led several diabetics to ration their medications with fatal consequences.

Keith Ellison said he's reached a deal with Danish pharmaceutical company Novo Nordisk to keep the cost of insulin at $35 a month.

Novo Nordisk agreed to cap insulin prices to settle a lawsuit in which Minnesota's attorney general accused the three largest insulin makers of charging astronomically high prices for the diabetes drug.

The settlement means all Minnesotans can purchase insulin from the three biggest insulin manufacturers for just $35 per month.

ST. PAUL, Minn. – All Minnesotans, whether they have insurance or not, will be able to buy insulin products for $35 a month for the next five years.
