Since 2005, GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Zepbound have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat type 2 diabetes. Now with the growing popularity of these medications to help with weight loss, GLP-1s are in high demand, resulting in shortages of these drugs. On October 2, 2024, the FDA determined the shortage of the tirzepatide injection, a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) medication, has been 鈥渞esolved.鈥�
Now with the tirzepatide injection shortage having been resolved and removed from the FDA’s drug shortage list, what happens next? What future is in store for compounded GLP-1 drugs?
麻豆直播 partners Nate Beaver, co-chair of the firm鈥檚 Medical Devices Area of Focus, and David Rosen, leader of the firm鈥檚 FDA Practice Group, will discuss the following as it relates to GLP-1 drugs:

- What鈥檚 the current status of the drug shortages for semaglutide and tirzepatide?
