I agree that another company will by the assets and fill the gap in the market left. The human cost of the transition is hard to swallow though. It brings up the question, If we have let certain companies gain such control on the health of the nation, what amount of sacrifice is too much to re establish independence from them?

The first step at would be to change monopoly on production of a drug maybe, but that's a whole other rabbit whole with its own drawbacks.

My post was influenced by emotion. You're right, it's a complicated issue. I'm not sure there will be an easy solution.
