After more than 30 drugmakers ushered in the new year with a wave of price hikes, another pharma giant, Johnson & Johnson, is following suit.
The pharma giant raised the U.S. price of about two dozen drugs Jan. 10, including its psoriasis treatment Stelara and blood thinner Xarelto, Reuters reports.

J&J said it does not plan to raise prices on any more drugs this year.
