How much profit is there in pricing of GLP-1 products like Trulicity or Ozempic?

While there's a shortage of Ozempic in the US, Novo-Nordisk sells $316 million of Ozempic in China at a price of four Ozempic injectors (a one month supply) for $174.

That's $2,088 per year and still very profitable. In the US Ozempic costs $11,000 annually bringing in $7 billion.


During any period when a medication is in shortage, compounding pharmacies can sell a replacement.

So they're selling commercial semaglutide, the ingredient in Ozempic, for only $5,280 per year, half price, and making an absolute windfall.

Some are now offering a year's supply for $3,600. - https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Wellness/high-cost-drugs-weight-loss-ozempic-mounjaro-users/story?id=99424157
