I say 'yet again' as this has happened before:

mnkd.proboards.com/thread/6700/trump-dropped-hint-pharmaceutical-industry
Who knows, maybe this time they are serious. More at link:

Trump announces two moves aimed at lowering drug prices
But before anyone has conniptions or gets over-stimulated:
The proposal is limited, though, in that it will only lower drug prices for people on Medicare, not people who get their insurance through their jobs, for example. It also only applies to a portion of Medicare drugs, those administered in doctors' offices, not those that people get at the pharmacy counter.
