Brandi Glanville Turns to Mark Cuban’s Pharmacy to Curb Medication Costs Amid Facial Disfigurement Brandi Glanville, the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, has partnered with Mark Cuban’s pharmacy company, Cost Plus Drugs, to address the exorbitant costs of her medications, which she attributes to her facial disfigurement caused by breast implants. The 53-year-old businesswoman revealed she has accumulated over $200,000 in medical bills, citing a lack of transparency and inflated pricing from traditional pharmacies. Rachel Strauss, CEO of healthcare consulting firm PBM Princess, LLC, has been working with Glanville to navigate her financial challenges and secure refunds for overcharged medications. Strauss explained that Glanville’s medical expenses were exacerbated by inconsistent pricing across pharmacies. By analyzing Glanville’s medication records, Strauss found significant discrepancies in costs for the same drugs, with some medications priced up to 70-80% higher at other pharmacies. For instance, drugs that cost between $29 and $30 at standard pharmacies were available for as low as $6 to $8 at Cost Plus Drugs. Strauss emphasized that Glanville’s trust in her pharmacy’s pricing led to financial strain, but the partnership with Cuban’s company allowed her to access drastically reduced costs. Glanville’s medical journey began three years ago when she started experiencing symptoms such as brain fog, joint pain, and facial disfigurement. After visiting 21 doctors, she was diagnosed with complications from her breast implants. A ruptured implant on her right side had leaked silicone into her lymph nodes, leading to severe health issues. Glanville reported feeling relief after removing the implants, though the process was financially and emotionally taxing.#brandi_glanville #mark_cuban #cost_plus_drugs #rachel_strauss #pbm_princess_llc
