#ReleaseTheVials
https://www.onthepen.com/post/eli-lilly-to-releasethevials-of-zepbound
Eli Lilly has released single-dose vials for ZepBound to stabilize higher dose supplies and removed all Mounjaro and ZepBound doses from the FDA shortage list, though tirzepatide remains in shortage. Novo Nordisk is seeking FDA approval for Icosema, a combination of insulin and semaglutide, with a favorable safety profile.
Lilly Sends Tirzepatide Compound Cease and Desist Letters

Eli Lilly is taking legal action against GLP-1 compounders, particularly targeting ZepBound. Cease and desist letters have been issued to smaller prescribers and med spas, potentially pressuring the FDA on tirzepatide’s shortage status.
#ReportTheShortage
Ro.co/supply-tracker
Patients are encouraged to report ZepBound or Mounjaro shortages to the FDA. Ro has introduced a supply tracker tool to notify patients of nearby availability and launched RoBody, a program connecting patients with doctors to manage obesity and achieve significant weight loss.
Insurance Checker Toll
Ro.co/checker
Ro's new GLP-1 Insurance Coverage Checker allows users to check insurance coverage for obesity medications and is integrated with the supply tracker. Despite financial struggles, 23andMe is launching a GLP-1 telehealth service. The ‘Opt-in for Obesity’ campaign encourages employees to request obesity coverage from their employers.
On The Pen Live
Z Reitano from Ro will discuss the GLP-1 Insurance Coverage Tool on the upcoming On The Pen Live session, airing on YouTube this Thursday at 9 p.m. Central.
