Wegovy shows early momentum with 3,071 U.S. prescriptions in launch days

TL;DR Summary
Novo Nordisk’s oral Wegovy drew 3,071 U.S. prescriptions in the first four days after its launch, IQVIA data shared by analysts show, indicating early momentum in a competitive weight‑loss market as the company vies with Eli Lilly. The figure counts retail prescriptions only (not online NovoCare Pharmacy fillings), so actual demand is likely higher.
