USFDA says timeline for supply limits on Novo Nordisk weight loss drug Wegovy unclear

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has said it was not clear when supply of lower doses of Novo Nordisk's Wegovy would normalize, backtracking from its earlier estimates to resume supply of the popular weight-loss drug this month.
The FDA, in its drug shortage list, listed the 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg and 1 mg doses of the drug with limited availability and that the duration of shortage was "to be decided", while the larger doses of 1.7 mg and 2.4 mg were still available.
