Novo Nordisk to Launch Wegovy Weight Loss Drug in India

A Danish company called Novo Nordisk is bringing a weight loss shot called Wegovy to India.

This shot, often called a "skinny jab," uses the same ingredient as the diabetes drug Ozempic.

Celebrities have helped make it popular.

It comes in a pen with doses that cost between ₹17,345 and ₹26,050 a month.

Another similar drug, Mounjaro, is already available in India from a different company.

These medications work by reducing how much you eat and helping you lose weight.
