FDA reports that it's not known when supply of lower doses of Novo Nordisk's Wegovy will normalize—a change from its earlier estimates that supply of the popular weight-loss drug would resume this month. As of September 12, FDA's drug shortage database shows that the 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, and 1 mg doses have limited availability due to demand increase and that the duration of the shortage was TBD, while the higher doses of 1.7 mg and 2.4 mg were still available.
