Lilly positions tirzepatide as a clinically superior option as semaglutide patent expiry triggers a wave of generics, intensifying competition in India's diabetes and obesity market

Federal regulators have told drugmakers Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly to remove label warnings about potential suicidal thoughts and behaviours from their blockbuster weight-loss medications. The US Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday said a comprehensive review found no increased risk related to suicide among users of the GLP-1 drugs for obesity, including Novo Nordisk's Wegovy and Saxenda and Eli Lilly's Zepbound. A preliminary review in January 2024 showed no link between the drugs and suicidal thought or actions, the FDA said. At that time, however, officials said they could not rule out that a small risk may exist. The new analysis puts those concerns to rest. Labeling for other drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists approved to treat diabetes carried no such warnings, the agency noted. Today's FDA action will ensure consistent messaging across the labelling for all FDA-approved GLP-1 RA medications, officials said.
