Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE: NVO) is seeking FDA approval for the pill version of its obesity drug, Wegovy. The company highlights early data that shows safety and efficacy figures that are similar to its injectables.

Drugmaker Novo Nordisk expects Wegovy weight-loss drug sales in the United States to start to recover once a ban on compound copycats is enforced this month, its CEO said on Wednesday after the company cut its 2025 forecasts.

Novo Nordisk has cut its sales and profits forecasts for 2025 due to lower demand in the US for blockbuster weight loss and diabetes drugs.

Novo Nordisk is hedging and building its way around a global tariff war that may threaten the Wegovy maker’s plans to expand in the U.S. Karsten Munk Knudsen, Novo Nordisk’s chief financial officer, told Fortune the company is well-placed to handle the geopolitical upheaval that rocked global business in March and April.

In addition to eliciting greater weight loss than Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy, Eli Lilly’s Zepbound does not come at the expense of safety, according to newly released comprehensive tolerability data—findings that Leerink analysts say confirm the GLP-1 drug’s edge in the closely watched market race.

(Reuters) -Eli Lilly said on Sunday its drug Zepbound was superior to Novo Nordisk's Wegovy across five weight-loss targets such as reducing waist circumference, citing data from a head-to-head trial.
