Do more research. He is a mixed bag, trying to lower prescription drug prices, but he is also no enemy of Big Pharma. I asked OpenAI about him in research mode, and if it was largely correct.

So not total FUD. I am quoting from ChatGPT:

Between 2019 and 2024, Senator Ron Wyden received $351,513 in campaign contributions from the Pharmaceuticals/Health Products industry. This total includes $169,063 from individual donors and $182,450 from political action committees (PACs).

It’s important to note that while Senator Wyden has received contributions from the pharmaceutical industry, he has also been a critic of high drug prices. For instance, during a 2019 Senate Finance Committee hearing, he emphasized the need for concrete actions to make medications more affordable.
