FDA Appeal Upheld as Shortages End for Eli Lilly’s Zepbound and Mounjaro
An appeals court upheld an FDA decision that the shortages for Eli Lilly’s Zepbound and Mounjaro have ended, confirming the agency followed the proper procedures. The ruling affects the GLP-1 compounding market that had emerged while the drugs were listed as in shortage since 2022. Novo Nordisk cut forecasts but projects adjusted sales growth of 0% to -6% amid stronger GLP-1 demand.
