Lilly’s weight-loss drug launches in UK; revenue guidance raised
Novo has a head start in European uptake and global patient numbers. Lilly plans to launch its weight-loss drug in the UK later this month via private prescriptions, priced below Mounjaro’s ~£330 monthly list. Eli Lilly raised 2026 revenue guidance to $85–$87B on strong demand, while Foundayo uptake remains slower and the drug is still under EU review as Wegovy gains traction.
