‘During the most favored nations Oval Office announcement, a representative with one of the companies fainted. The White House medical unit quickly jumped into action, and the gentleman is okay. The press conference will resume shortly,’ she said in a statement.

President Trump also addressed the situation later in a meeting with media representatives.

‘One of the representatives of one of the companies got a little bit light-headed. You saw he went down. And he’s fine. They just sent him out, he’s got doctor’s care, but he’s fine,’ Trump said.

‘So, we had a little bit of an interruption, sorry about that.’

Attendees included executives from Novo Nordisk, which makes the popular weight-loss shot Ozempic, and Eli Lilly, the maker of Zepbound.

The White House announced that the deal would allow some weight loss pills to be available for just $149 a month.  And Medicare enrollees in the US will also have more access to the drugs.

In return, drug makers will get a break on Trump’s tariffs on imported pharmaceutical products.

Trump lauded the weight-loss drugs, saying that they don’t have the same list of side effects as lots of other prescriptions on the market.

‘So far, I’ve never heard anything bad about them,’ Trump said at the top of his remarks. ‘Is there anything bad about them?’ he asked Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr., who was standing nearby.

Kennedy said the drugs, known as GLP-1s, will allow the American public to lose ‘125 million pounds by this time next year.’

‘It is going to have dramatic effects on human health in his country,’ the HHS secretary added.
