#Ozempic Makerā€™s $16B Deal Tightens #Semaglutide Monopoly and #glp1 Duopoly

Novo Nordiskā€™s latest $16.5 billion deal with Novo Holdings to acquire Catalent and secure three key manufacturing sites is set to shake up the GLP-1 landscape. This move positions Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly as the dominant players in the obesity and diabetes medication market, creating a powerful duopoly over life-changing drugs like Wegovy, Ozempic, and Mounjaro. But what does this mean for patients? With compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide already under fire, this deal could spell the end for affordable alternatives, leaving patients to face high prices and limited options. In this video, we explore how this acquisition impacts the future of GLP-1 access, the compounded medication market, and what patients can do to advocate for affordable treatment. Donā€™t miss this deep dive into big pharmaā€™s growing control and the ripple effects on patient care.

šŸ’‰šŸ§¬ #Leptin + #GLP1 Novo Reveals New #WeightLoss Drug

12.8.24 Here are my thoughts on thisā€¦ This news dropped in the middle of holiday season 2024, while the excitement over #Zepbound is reaching a fever pitch. Leptin was discovered in my lifetime, and while I am knocking on the door of ā€œoldā€, I am still relatively young. So is the idea of, and what we have done with leptin. This *could* be some of the biggest news I have covered on this channel. Time will tell. OTP has a history of being ā€œearly to the partyā€ā€¦ See: #Retatrutide Reta WHO tride? Novo Nordisk is doubling and tripling down on GLP-1. It means they get it. It means it works. While Lilly is confidently charging forward with GIP, Novo is sitting in the corner without any fanfare, quietly and diligently working on building on what it has already done.
