The country's health regulator has cleared the oral version of Novo Nordisk's semaglutide for weight management.
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide now cost less at lower starting doses, and members can order cholesterol, A1C and thyroid panels in the same app.
Pricing now scales with dose, so people on lower starting doses pay less. The new Mochi Labs bloodwork service tracks A1C, cholesterol and thyroid, though not in NY, NJ, RI or HI.
Novo Nordisk plans to offer Wegovy in vials as well as its usual format. The report gives no timing or pricing yet.
Polskie Radio covers US regulators clearing the first daily oral version of Wegovy for weight loss. Details beyond that are thin.
Avon pitches the new formula as a way to control shine while hydrating dry areas. It's a cosmetic skincare launch rather than a peptide drug.
The once-weekly autoinjector is cleared for type 2 diabetes, overweight and obesity. Lilly never officially sold Mounjaro in Russia, and its rights there ended in November 2024.
A first month is expected to cost about 129,800 won, roughly half of Mounjaro in Korea, while smuggling of cheaper Mounjaro from Japan has jumped 4.2 times.
South Korea's first homegrown obesity drug won approval, and Hanmi set its price to take on Wegovy and Mounjaro in the local market.
The seven-step, needle-free facial costs $299 a visit or $239 a month at Silver Mirror's 10 studios. The company says it is not a medical procedure.
Industry sources put the first four weeks at about 129,800 won wholesale, roughly half of Mounjaro's starting cost. Launch is expected later this month.
Approved on the 7th after a Phase 3 trial showing 9.75% average weight loss. Observers expect the lowest dose could cost around 100,000 won a month.
Two new plans keep one price at every dose, with no membership fee. Prescriptions come from five named 503A pharmacies, and the cheaper plan skips California.
The plan bills $375 per quarter with B12 included and ships everywhere but California. A pricier Ozari Select tier offers three formulations.
