The Associated Press notes lawmakers including Sen Grassley and Rep Meng press Mylan for explanations and reforms. Schools often bear costs, while Mylan cites savings programs and free kits for schools. Local districts like Gaston County receive pens via partnerships as insurer deductibles worsen affordability.

Heroin use rising as pills drive demand in county
Police say heroin still largely enters Gaston County from Charlotte via Mexico, with dealers meeting in park lots to transport drugs. The county ranks fifth in heroin overdoses from 1999 to 2014, with 75 deaths amid concerns pills are driving cheap, accessible heroin. Cutting heroin with fentanyl increases fatal risk, as users often cannot gauge potency.
