TL;DR Summary

Novo Nordisk is cutting supply on certain dose strengths of its weight loss drug Wegovy due to strong demand, which will not meet anticipated patient demand. The company projected that many patients will have difficulty filling Wegovy prescriptions at these dose strengths through September 2023. However, it doesn't anticipate supply interruptions for its 1.7 mg and 2.4 mg dose strengths. Obesity care sales grew by 131% in Danish Kroner to DKK 7.8 billion, or $1.15 billion, which was mainly driven by the uptake of Wegovy in the US.
