The most expensive drug on the list costs 2m, but then you're done. Cured.

The second most expensive costs 1m. But that's per year.

1m/year > 2m/lifetime

Sadly though, even with the drug lifetime in this case is only 15-19 years.

Yea, well Myasthenia Gravis is not terminal, so I’ll likely be on Solaris for the next 30-40 years… so $28,000,000 USD :(

Yep, I can’t testify personally that Solaris is a treatment , not a cure
