Source and evidence
Against official inflation: BLS CPI-U (US) “nonprescription drugs” changed −1.2% (2025 average vs 2024, same 11 months, a broad match for this category). The size cut alone raises the price per pound by +8.5% if the shelf price stayed the same (the source recorded no prices). Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.
