# Inside the Wegovy Revolution: How Novo Nordisk's Weight Loss Drug Is Reshaping Healthcare

Dive into the latest developments surrounding Wegovy, the groundbreaking weight loss medication that's become a cultural phenomenon beyond the pharmaceutical world. This episode explores Novo Nordisk's recent insurance victory with CVS Health Caremark, impressive financial growth despite challenges from knockoff drugs, and the ongoing legal battle against compounded versions of semaglutide.

We examine the FDA's warnings about unauthorized compounded GLP-1 medications and reveal Novo Nordisk's next potential game-changer: an oral version of Wegovy showing promising 13.6% weight loss in clinical trials. Learn how this compares to Eli Lilly's competing pill orforglipron, which delivered somewhat disappointing results for investors expecting more.

The episode also covers how real-world studies continue to validate Wegovy's effectiveness, the shifting insurance landscape as obesity gains recognition as a chronic health condition, and practical advice for patients navigating this rapidly evolving treatment space. Join host Alexandra Reeves for this comprehensive look at how Wegovy sits at the intersection of science, commerce, and societal change in addressing the global obesity crisis.
