Back to EpisodesFoundayo: New Weight-Loss Pill Approved, No Injections Needed
Description
Federal regulators have approved Eli Lillys new weight-loss pill, orforglipron, branded as Foundayo. Its the second daily oral option for obesity, similar to injectable GLP-one drugs, and will start shipping Monday. Prices range from $25 to $349 per month, depending on dose. Foundayo has shown promising results in clinical trials, with users losing weight, lowering blood pressure, and improving cholesterol. However, side effects were common, causing 5-10% of users to drop out. The FDA fast-tracked its approval, and its part of a push to make GLP-one drugs more accessible.
