Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA, pronounced /ˈfɑrmə/),
formerly known as the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association,[1] is an
American trade group representing companies in the pharmaceutical industry.
Founded in 1958, PhRMA lobbies on behalf of pharmaceutical companies.[2][3]
PhRMA is headquartered in Washington, D.C.[1]
The
organization has lobbied fiercely against allowing Medicare to negotiate drug
prices for Medicare
recipients,[4] and filed lawsuits against the drug price provisions in the
Inflation Reduction Act.[5][6] At the state level, the organization has lobbied
to prevent price limits and greater price transparency for drugs.[7] The
organization claims that higher prices incentivize research and development,
even though pharmaceutical spending on marketing exceeds that spent on
research,[8] including off-label promotion that has resulted in settlements in
the billions of dollars.[9]
PhRMA
has given substantial dark money donations to right-wing advocacy groups such
as the American Action Network (which
lobbied heavily against the Affordable Care Act), Americans
for Prosperity,
and Americans for Tax Reform.[10]
The
organization has also lobbied against lowering drug prices internationally. The
most visible conflict has been over AIDS drugs in Africa. Despite the role that
patents have played in maintaining higher drug costs for public health programs
across Africa, the organization worked to minimize the effect of the Doha
Declaration, which said that TRIPS should not prevent countries from dealing
with public health crises and allowed for compulsory licenses.[11][12] The
organization also opposed a World Trade Organization TRIPS Agreement waiver during the COVID-19 pandemic, which would have reduced
the price of COVID-19 vaccines for low-income countries.
